Hi all,
    Recently, we are developing a platform with lucene. The ordering rule we 
specified is the document with the shortest distance between query terms ranks 
the first. But there may be a little different with SpanNearQuery. It returns 
all the documents with qualified distance. So I am confused with the ordering 
rule about SpanNearQuery. For example, I indicate the slot in SpanNearQuery is 
10. And the results are all the qualified documents. Is it true that any 
document with shorter distance between query rand before the one with longer 
distance without considering the tf-idf algorithm? Or among all the qualified 
documents, it till uses tf-idf algorithm to rank the docs. Or there is some 
complex algorithm blending the distance and tf-idf algorithm.




Thanks in advance. 
Kobe
