: and my query string is "Hennessy", the length normalization factor considers : all 4 tokens as in "John", "Hennessy", "David", "Patterson". This is : similar to the score if my field was like: : : <field name="author">John Hennessy David Patterson</field> : : I want the score to consider only that field value with any matches (here, : "John Hennessy"). : Thanks in advance
unfortunately not possible. lengthNorm is part of fieldNorm and for each doc there is one fieldNorm per field name... : > as the OP mentioned, the index time boost values for a field are per field : > *name* not per value ... they all get folded in together into hte : > fieldNorm for that field name in that document. -Hoss
