Detailed Description

Xapian::Weight subclass implementing Coordinate Matching.

Each matching term score one point. See Managing Gigabytes, Second Edition p181.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Xapian::CoordWeight::CoordWeight ( )
inline

Construct a CoordWeight.

Member Function Documentation

CoordWeight* Xapian::CoordWeight::clone ( ) const
virtual

Clone this object.

This method allocates and returns a copy of the object it is called on.

If your subclass is called FooWeight and has parameters a and b, then you would implement FooWeight::clone() like so:

FooWeight * FooWeight::clone() const { return new FooWeight(a, b); }

Note that the returned object will be deallocated by Xapian after use with "delete". If you want to handle the deletion in a special way (for example when wrapping the Xapian API for use from another language) then you can define a static operator delete method in your subclass as shown here: https://trac.xapian.org/ticket/554#comment:1

Implements Xapian::Weight.

double Xapian::CoordWeight::get_maxextra ( ) const
virtual

Return an upper bound on what get_sumextra() can return for any document.

This information is used by the matcher to perform various optimisations, so strive to make the bound as tight as possible.

Implements Xapian::Weight.

double Xapian::CoordWeight::get_maxpart ( ) const
virtual

Return an upper bound on what get_sumpart() can return for any document.

This information is used by the matcher to perform various optimisations, so strive to make the bound as tight as possible.

Implements Xapian::Weight.

double Xapian::CoordWeight::get_sumextra ( Xapian::termcount  doclen,
Xapian::termcount  uniqterms 
) const
virtual

Calculate the term-independent weight component for a document.

The parameter gives information about the document which may be used in the calculations:

Parameters
doclenThe document's length (unnormalised).
uniqtermsThe number of unique terms in the document.

Implements Xapian::Weight.

double Xapian::CoordWeight::get_sumpart ( Xapian::termcount  wdf,
Xapian::termcount  doclen,
Xapian::termcount  uniqterms 
) const
virtual

Calculate the weight contribution for this object's term to a document.

The parameters give information about the document which may be used in the calculations:

Parameters
wdfThe within document frequency of the term in the document.
doclenThe document's length (unnormalised).
uniqtermsNumber of unique terms in the document (used for absolute smoothing).

Implements Xapian::Weight.

void Xapian::CoordWeight::init ( double  factor)
virtual

Allow the subclass to perform any initialisation it needs to.

Parameters
factorAny scaling factor (e.g. from OP_SCALE_WEIGHT). If the Weight object is for the term-independent weight supplied by get_sumextra()/get_maxextra(), then init(0.0) is called (starting from Xapian 1.2.11 and 1.3.1 - earlier versions failed to call init() for such Weight objects).

Implements Xapian::Weight.

std::string Xapian::CoordWeight::name ( ) const
virtual

Return the name of this weighting scheme.

This name is used by the remote backend. It is passed along with the serialised parameters to the remote server so that it knows which class to create.

Return the full namespace-qualified name of your class here - if your class is called FooWeight, return "FooWeight" from this method (Xapian::BM25Weight returns "Xapian::BM25Weight" here).

If you don't want to support the remote backend, you can use the default implementation which simply returns an empty string.

Reimplemented from Xapian::Weight.

std::string Xapian::CoordWeight::serialise ( ) const
virtual

Return this object's parameters serialised as a single string.

If you don't want to support the remote backend, you can use the default implementation which simply throws Xapian::UnimplementedError.

Reimplemented from Xapian::Weight.

CoordWeight* Xapian::CoordWeight::unserialise ( const std::string &  serialised) const
virtual

Unserialise parameters.

This method unserialises parameters serialised by the serialise() method and allocates and returns a new object initialised with them.

If you don't want to support the remote backend, you can use the default implementation which simply throws Xapian::UnimplementedError.

Note that the returned object will be deallocated by Xapian after use with "delete". If you want to handle the deletion in a special way (for example when wrapping the Xapian API for use from another language) then you can define a static operator delete method in your subclass as shown here: https://trac.xapian.org/ticket/554#comment:1

Parameters
serialisedA string containing the serialised parameters.

Reimplemented from Xapian::Weight.
