The wiki entry for hl.highlightMultiTerm: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/HighlightingParameters#hl.highlightMultiTerm
doesn't appear to be correct. It says: If the SpanScorer is also being used, enables highlighting for range/wildcard/fuzzy/prefix queries. Default is false. But the code in DefaultSolrHighlighter (both on the 1.4 branch that I'm using and in the trunk) does: Boolean highlightMultiTerm = request.getParams().getBool(HighlightParams.HIGHLIGHT_MULTI_TERM, true); if(highlightMultiTerm == null) { highlightMultiTerm = false; } which looks to me like like it's going to default to true, since getBool will never return null, and if it gets a null value from the parameters internally, it will return true. Shall I file a Jira on this one? Perhaps it's easier just to fix the Wiki page? Steve -- Stephen Green http://thesearchguy.wordpress.com
