[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1821) Weight.scorer() not passed doc offset for "sub reader"

["Tim Smith (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1821?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12744711#action_12744711 ] 

Tim Smith commented on LUCENE-1821:
-----------------------------------

since Weight.explain() is passed the "sub reader", it also should be passed the offset in order to calculate the "real" docid

> Weight.scorer() not passed doc offset for "sub reader"

>                 Key: LUCENE-1821
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1821
>             Project: Lucene - Java
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Search
>    Affects Versions: 2.9
>            Reporter: Tim Smith
>
> Now that searching is done on a per segment basis, there is no way for a Scorer to know the "actual" doc id for the document's it matches (only the relative doc offset into the segment)
> If using caches in your scorer that are based on the "entire" index (all segments), there is now no way to index into them properly from inside a Scorer because the scorer is not passed the needed offset to calculate the "real" docid
> suggest having Weight.scorer() method also take a integer for the doc offset
> Abstract Weight class should have a constructor that takes this offset as well as a method to get the offset
> All Weights that have "sub" weights must pass this offset down to created "sub" weights
