[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1285) WeightedSpanTermExtractor incorrectly treats the same terms occurring in different query types

>             Project: Lucene - Java
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: contrib/highlighter
>    Affects Versions: 2.4

> Given a BooleanQuery with multiple clauses, if a term occurs both in a Span / Phrase query, and in a TermQuery, the results of term extraction are unpredictable and depend on the order of clauses. Concequently, the result of highlighting are incorrect.
> Example text: t1 t2 t3 t4 t2
> Example query: t2 t3 "t1 t2"
> Current highlighting: [t1 t2] [t3] t4 t2
> Correct highlighting: [t1 t2] [t3] t4 [t2]
> The problem comes from the fact that we keep a Map<termText, WeightedSpanTerm>, and if the same term occurs in a Phrase or Span query the resulting WeightedSpanTerm will have a positionSensitive=true, whereas terms added from TermQuery have positionSensitive=false. The end result for this particular term will depend on the order in which the clauses are processed.
> My fix is to use a subclass of Map, which on put() always sets the result to the most lax setting, i.e. if we already have a term with positionSensitive=true, and we try to put() a term with positionSensitive=false, we set the result positionSensitive=false, as it will match both cases.
