Unexpected terms are highlighted within nested SpanQuery instances
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: LUCENE-2287
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2287
Project: Lucene - Java
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: contrib/highlighter
Affects Versions: 2.9.1
Environment: Linux, Solaris, Windows
Reporter: Michael Goddard
Priority: Minor
I haven't yet been able to resolve why I'm seeing spurious highlighting in
nested SpanQuery instances. Briefly, the issue is illustrated by the second
instance of "Lucene" being highlighted in the test below, when it doesn't
satisfy the inner span. There's been some discussion about this on the
java-dev list, and I'm opening this issue now because I have made some initial
progress on this.
This new test, added to the HighlighterTest class in lucene_2_9_1, illustrates
this:
/*
* Ref: http://www.lucidimagination.com/blog/2009/07/18/the-spanquery/
*/
public void testHighlightingNestedSpans2() throws Exception {
String theText = "The Lucene was made by Doug Cutting and Lucene great Hadoop
was"; // Problem
//String theText = "The Lucene was made by Doug Cutting and the great Hadoop
was"; // Works okay
String fieldName = "SOME_FIELD_NAME";
SpanNearQuery spanNear = new SpanNearQuery(new SpanQuery[] {
new SpanTermQuery(new Term(fieldName, "lucene")),
new SpanTermQuery(new Term(fieldName, "doug")) }, 5, true);
Query query = new SpanNearQuery(new SpanQuery[] { spanNear,
new SpanTermQuery(new Term(fieldName, "hadoop")) }, 4, true);
String expected = "The <B>Lucene</B> was made by <B>Doug</B> Cutting and
Lucene great <B>Hadoop</B> was";
//String expected = "The <B>Lucene</B> was made by <B>Doug</B> Cutting and
the great <B>Hadoop</B> was";
String observed = highlightField(query, fieldName, theText);
System.out.println("Expected: \"" + expected + "\n" + "Observed: \"" +
observed);
assertEquals("Why is that second instance of the term \"Lucene\"
highlighted?", expected, observed);
}
Is this an issue that's arisen before? I've been reading through the source to
QueryScorer, WeightedSpanTerm, WeightedSpanTermExtractor, Spans, and
NearSpansOrdered, but haven't found the solution yet. Initially, I thought
that the extractWeightedSpanTerms method in WeightedSpanTermExtractor should be
called on each clause of a SpanNearQuery or SpanOrQuery, but that didn't get me
too far.
