Hi,

Since i'm using a boolean OR query i figured it must be related to the BooleanScorer (though there's a more complicated BooleanScorer2 which I'm not sure when it's use).

Looking at the BooleanScorer code it's probably a little over my head as I'm still a beginner to Lucene.

But, I would appreciate if someone could point me to the method where the searcher iterates over all query terms and outputs the score. I grep both the Searcher classes and the BooleanScorer classes but can't find it.

Also, I would like to know whether will the sloppyFreq "kick in" if I'm just using a Boolean OR query or is this only for phrase queries? And how do I disable this so that it'll always be 1.0 without overwriting the method?

Thanks for all the help so far.

Most of the Similarity methods are called by the various Scorers.   A good
IDE will tell you where they are called (or you could just grep the
source, that's what I do)

: For example, looking at the tf method i see that it takes in a float for
: freq instead of int. So i'm curious to see how this method is invoked.

I commented on this recently (and no one contested my explanation)...
