[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-6334) Fast Vector Highlighter does not properly span neighboring term offsets

Hi Chis, Machael,

I am new to the Lucene dev, looks like it might be a starting point for me to explore the code.
Can I start working on this issue?

Regards,
Vijay

> If you are using term vectors for fast vector highlighting along with a multivalue field while matching a phrase that crosses two elements, then it will not properly highlight even though it _properly_ finds the correct values to highlight.
> A good example of this is when matching source code, where you might have lines like:
> {code}
> one two three five
> two three four
> five six five
> six seven eight nine eight nine eight nine eight nine eight nine eight nine
> eight nine
> ten eleven
> twelve thirteen
> {code}
> Matching the phrase "four five" will return
> {code}
> two three four
> five six five
> six seven eight nine eight nine eight nine eight nine eight
> eight nine
> ten eleven
> {code}
> However, it does not properly highlight "four" (on the first line) and "five" (on the second line) _and_ it is returning too many lines, but not all of them.
> The problem lies in the [BaseFragmentsBuilder at line 269| https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/blob/trunk/lucene/highlighter/src/java/org/apache/lucene/search/vectorhighlight/BaseFragmentsBuilder.java#L269] because it is not checking for cross-coverage. Here is a possible solution:
> {code}
> boolean started = toffs.getStartOffset() >= fieldStart;
> boolean ended = toffs.getEndOffset() <= fieldEnd;
> // existing behavior:
> if (started && ended) {
>     toffsList.add(toffs);
>     toffsIterator.remove();
> }
> else if (started) {
>     toffsList.add(new Toffs(toffs.getStartOffset(), field.end));
>     // toffsIterator.remove(); // is this necessary?
> }
> else if (ended) {
>     toffsList.add(new Toffs(fieldStart, toff.getEndOffset()));
>     // toffsIterator.remove(); // is this necessary?
> }
> else if (toffs.getEndOffset() > fieldEnd) {
>     // ie the toff spans whole field
>     toffsList.add(new Toffs(fieldStart, fieldEnd));
>     // toffsIterator.remove(); // is this necessary?
> }
> {code}
