Interesting... you cannot access instance variables in the constructor? Also, this hasn't been fully implemented. Boost is going to be a DRR pattern attribute which will allow 1 pattern to be configured to rank higher than another.

I propose to fix it as in DMAP-115 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DMAP-115>. *Question:* Shall we remove boost option on Pattern ctor? It is neither used, nor available in .NET client. Best.
