: Hi : what is the purpose of positionIncrementGap attribute in field : type tag of schema.xml. The value specified for that : positionIncrementGap=100. If we change the value what will happen?
searching either the wiki, or google, or the example schema.xml answers this question... http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SchemaXml?highlight=%28positionIncrementGap%29 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/solr/trunk/example/solr/conf/schema.xml The optional positionIncrementGap puts space between multiple fields of this type on the same document, with the purpose of preventing false phrase matching across fields. -Hoss
