Hi Markus,
Thanks for the quick reply.
Could you tell me a possible a value for the high boost such that its to be
negated? or Is there a way I can calculate or find that out.
Also, for the other approach on using indexing filter does the ("...",
LuceneWriter.STORE.YES, LuceneWriter.INDEX.NO, conf); does the work?
Thanks,
Abi
