Property Bits

Bits

Optionally provides a IBits interface for random access to matching documents.

Declaration
public virtual IBits Bits { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
IBits

null, if this DocIdSet does not support random access. In contrast to GetIterator(), a return value of null does not imply that no documents match the filter! The default implementation does not provide random access, so you only need to implement this method if your DocIdSet can guarantee random access to every docid in O(1) time without external disk access (as IBits interface cannot throw ). This is generally true for bit sets like FixedBitSet, which return itself if they are used as DocIdSet.
