This is provided by the Token.startOffset() and Token.endOffset() at indexing time, I think.
I don't know if this is accessible at run time. A good place to see what is stored in the files is the File Formats section located at http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene/docs/fileformats.html. (Get the latest from HEAD to see the new Term Vector stuff). For what you can access, I usually start at IndexReader and dig in from there. Of course, the Position info and how we did it is available in the "first" patch I submitted (and the "original one" from Dmitry), so if you are willing to always write position information, you could update your code with that information. Or, better yet :-), take it and add the necessary touches to make it truly optional and donate it back to Lucene. -Grant >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/24/04 05:39PM >>> Grant Ingersoll wrote: > It is the location of the token in the document (see IndexReader.termPositions()). > This information is already being stored in other parts of the index, it just isn't > very efficient to get at it. Ok, that wasn't the answer I was hoping for :) I was hoping that the positions referred to was the start/end offsets in the originating Token(s). I'll just have to find another way to optimize the highlighting code to make it more efficient.
