I want to do the same, set a boost for a field containing a date that lowers as the date is further from now, is there any way I could do this?
Also when I set a document boost at index time, with doc.setBoost(2); then retrieve it via doc.getBoost() I always seem to get 1.0, even though I can tell from a search that the boost works correctly. I realise the docs say that the returned value may not be the same as the indexed value, but should I always get 1? Essentially I'm trying to allow an administrator to set the boost on the document through my webapp. Thanks On Mon, 2004-07-26 at 17:17 +0200, Akmal Sarhan wrote: > I want to boost those with the oldest age to have a better score for > example but in conjunction with other criteria (therefore the new Sort > will not help I guess) -- Rob Clews Klear Systems Ltd t: +44 (0)121 707 8558 e: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
