Class BoostQueryNode

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.apache.lucene.queryParser.core.nodes.QueryNodeImpl
      extended by org.apache.lucene.queryParser.core.nodes.BoostQueryNode
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable, QueryNode

public class BoostQueryNode
extends QueryNodeImpl

A BoostQueryNode boosts the QueryNode tree which is under this node. So, it must only and always have one child. The boost value may vary from 0.0 to 1.0.
