[jira] [Commented] (LUCENENET-519) NumericField.Boost ignored at index time

Chris Eldredge commented on LUCENENET-519:
------------------------------------------

Thanks for the background. I searched for this issue but didn't find anything relevant, so I wasn't sure if it was the same in Java and if it is a known issue.

Your suggested work-around didn't quite work for me. When retrieving Documents later at query time, the field value is blank for some reason and I wasn't able to figure out why. It could be that I'm doing something wrong.

Anyway, another work-around I came up with that does work is using reflection to set the {{internalOmitNorms}} field on {{AbstractField}} to false.

It would be nice if {{NumericField}} was not sealed so I didn't have to resort to reflection, but I'm guessing this is a carry-over from Java too.

Thanks again for explaining the issue clearly.

> When adding a document that contains a NumericField with a boost value greater than 1.0f (the default), the boost value seems to be ignored. Querying later using a BooleanQuery does not boost the numeric field over other fields that have a default boost amount.
