  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getField

          public abstract String getField()

      Returns the name of the field matched by this query.

    - #### createWeight

          public abstract SpanWeight createWeight(IndexSearcher searcher,
                                                  boolean needsScores,

      Description copied from class: `Query`
      Expert: Constructs an appropriate Weight implementation for this query.

      Only implemented by primitive queries, which re-write to themselves.

      Overrides:
        `createWeight` in class `Query`
        `needsScores` - True if document scores (`Scorer.score()`) are needed.
        `boost` - The boost that is propagated by the parent queries.
      Throws:
        `IOException`

    - #### getTermContexts

          public static Map<Term,TermContext> getTermContexts(SpanWeight... weights)

      Build a map of terms to termcontexts, for use in constructing SpanWeights
