Simon Willnauer commented on LUCENE-1680:
-----------------------------------------
You are right, adding a getter for prefix Term is more general. I had a brief
look at Term#set and I missed that it is package private. Otherwise it would
have been mutable and therefore I would have preferred to just return the
prefix length.
I added a new version of the patch. Thanks

> PrefixTermEnum#difference() offers a way to influence scoring based on the
> difference between the prefix Term and a term in the enumeration. To
> effectively use this facility the length of the prefix should be accessible
> to subclasses. Currently the prefix term is private to PrefixTermEnum. I
> added a getter for the prefix length and made PrefixTermEnum#endEnum(),
> PrefixTermEnum#termCompare() final for consistency with other TermEnum
> subclasses.
> Patch is attached.
