It was.... people are free to create whatever functions they want. We never explicitly spelled out what happens when functions return -Inf or NaN, but everything still worked. Now we actually lose documents and they are replaced with invalid docids. To work around it, I've temporarily checked the score for NaN or -Infinity and replaced it with -MaxVal. I guess that will become permanent if we decide that those are not valid scores for scorers to produce. -Yonik http://www.lucidimagination.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
