Detailed Description

Abstract base class for match spies.

The subclasses will generally accumulate information seen during the match, to calculate aggregate functions, or other profiles of the matching documents.

Definition at line 49 of file matchspy.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ MatchSpy() [1/2]

Xapian::MatchSpy::MatchSpy ( const MatchSpy )
private

Don't allow copying.

◆ MatchSpy() [2/2]

Xapian::MatchSpy::MatchSpy ( )
inline

Default constructor, needed by subclass constructors.

Definition at line 60 of file matchspy.h.

References name.

◆ ~MatchSpy()

MatchSpy::~MatchSpy ( )
virtual

Virtual destructor, because we have virtual methods.

Definition at line 48 of file matchspy.cc.

Member Function Documentation

◆ clone()

MatchSpy * MatchSpy::clone ( ) const
virtual

Clone the match spy.

The clone should inherit the configuration of the parent, but need not inherit the state. ie, the clone does not need to be passed information about the results seen by the parent.

If you don't want to support the remote backend in your match spy, you can use the default implementation which simply throws Xapian::UnimplementedError.

Note that the returned object will be deallocated by Xapian after use with "delete". If you want to handle the deletion in a special way (for example when wrapping the Xapian API for use from another language) then you can define a static operator delete method in your subclass as shown here: https://trac.xapian.org/ticket/554#comment:1

Reimplemented in ExceptionalMatchSpy, and Xapian::ValueCountMatchSpy.

Definition at line 51 of file matchspy.cc.

Referenced by DEFINE_TESTCASE().

◆ get_description()

string MatchSpy::get_description ( ) const
virtual

Return a string describing this object.

This default implementation returns a generic answer, to avoid forcing those deriving their own MatchSpy subclasses from having to implement this (they may not care what get_description() gives for their subclass).

Reimplemented in Xapian::ValueCountMatchSpy.

Definition at line 81 of file matchspy.cc.

References unsupported_method().

Referenced by DEFINE_TESTCASE().

◆ merge_results()

void MatchSpy::merge_results ( const std::string &  serialised)
virtual

Unserialise some results, and merge them into this matchspy.

The order in which results are merged should not be significant, since this order is not specified (and will vary depending on the speed of the search in each sub-database).

If you don't want to support the remote backend in your match spy, you can use the default implementation which simply throws Xapian::UnimplementedError.

Parameters
serialisedA string containing the serialised results.

Reimplemented in Xapian::ValueCountMatchSpy.

Definition at line 76 of file matchspy.cc.

Referenced by DEFINE_TESTCASE().

◆ name()

string MatchSpy::name ( ) const
virtual

Return the name of this match spy.

This name is used by the remote backend. It is passed with the serialised parameters to the remote server so that it knows which class to create.

Return the full namespace-qualified name of your class here - if your class is called MyApp::FooMatchSpy, return "MyApp::FooMatchSpy" from this method.

If you don't want to support the remote backend in your match spy, you can use the default implementation which simply throws Xapian::UnimplementedError.

Reimplemented in ExceptionalMatchSpy, and Xapian::ValueCountMatchSpy.

Definition at line 56 of file matchspy.cc.

Referenced by Xapian::Registry::Internal::add_defaults(), DEFINE_TESTCASE(), and Xapian::Registry::register_match_spy().

◆ operator()()

virtual void Xapian::MatchSpy::operator() ( const Xapian::Document doc,
double  wt 
)
pure virtual

Register a document with the match spy.

This is called by the matcher once with each document seen by the matcher during the match process. Note that the matcher will often not see all the documents which match the query, due to optimisations which allow low-weighted documents to be skipped, and allow the match process to be terminated early.

Parameters
docThe document seen by the match spy.
wtThe weight of the document.

Implemented in ExceptionalMatchSpy, TestMatchSpy, MySpy, Xapian::ValueCountMatchSpy, MultipleMatchSpy, and SimpleMatchSpy.

◆ operator=()

void Xapian::MatchSpy::operator= ( const MatchSpy )
private

Don't allow assignment.

◆ release() [1/2]

MatchSpy* Xapian::MatchSpy::release ( )
inline

Start reference counting this object.

You can transfer ownership of a dynamically allocated MatchSpy object to Xapian by calling release() and then passing the object to a Xapian method. Xapian will arrange to delete the object once it is no longer required.

Definition at line 184 of file matchspy.h.

Referenced by DEFINE_TESTCASE(), and RemoteServer::msg_query().

◆ release() [2/2]

const MatchSpy* Xapian::MatchSpy::release ( ) const
inline

Start reference counting this object.

You can transfer ownership of a dynamically allocated MatchSpy object to Xapian by calling release() and then passing the object to a Xapian method. Xapian will arrange to delete the object once it is no longer required.

Definition at line 196 of file matchspy.h.

◆ serialise()

string MatchSpy::serialise ( ) const
virtual

Return this object's parameters serialised as a single string.

If you don't want to support the remote backend in your match spy, you can use the default implementation which simply throws Xapian::UnimplementedError.

Reimplemented in Xapian::ValueCountMatchSpy.

Definition at line 61 of file matchspy.cc.

Referenced by DEFINE_TESTCASE().

◆ serialise_results()

string MatchSpy::serialise_results ( ) const
virtual

Serialise the results of this match spy.

If you don't want to support the remote backend in your match spy, you can use the default implementation which simply throws Xapian::UnimplementedError.

Reimplemented in Xapian::ValueCountMatchSpy.

Definition at line 71 of file matchspy.cc.

Referenced by DEFINE_TESTCASE().

◆ unserialise()

MatchSpy * MatchSpy::unserialise ( const std::string &  serialised,
const Registry context 
) const
virtual

Unserialise parameters.

This method unserialises parameters serialised by the serialise() method and allocates and returns a new object initialised with them.

If you don't want to support the remote backend in your match spy, you can use the default implementation which simply throws Xapian::UnimplementedError.

Note that the returned object will be deallocated by Xapian after use with "delete". If you want to handle the deletion in a special way (for example when wrapping the Xapian API for use from another language) then you can define a static operator delete method in your subclass as shown here: https://trac.xapian.org/ticket/554#comment:1

Parameters
serialisedA string containing the serialised results.
contextRegistry object to use for unserialisation to permit MatchSpy subclasses with sub-MatchSpy objects to be implemented.

Reimplemented in Xapian::ValueCountMatchSpy.

Definition at line 66 of file matchspy.cc.
