* A required clause will allow a document to be selected if and only if it contains that clause and will exclude any documents that don't.
* A prohibited clause will exclude any documents that contain that clause.
* A clause that is neither prohibited nor required will select a document if it contains the clause, but the clause will not prevent non-matching documents from being selected by other clauses.
Hopefully that helps,

Karl Koch sagte:Hi all,
why does the boolean query have a "required" and a "prohited" field
(boolean
value)? If something is required it cannot be forbidden and otherwise? How
does this match with the Boolean model we know from theory?
What if required and prohibited are both off? That's somthing we need.
Are there differences between Lucene and the Boolean model in theory?
To save three conditions you have to take at least 2 bits. That's for the
theory.
Kind regards
