      public class SpanFirstQuery
      extends SpanPositionRangeQuery

  Matches spans near the beginning of a field.

  This class is a simple extension of `SpanPositionRangeQuery` in that it assumes the start to be zero and only checks the end boundary.

    - #### SpanFirstQuery

          public SpanFirstQuery(SpanQuery match,
                                int end)

      Construct a SpanFirstQuery matching spans in `match` whose end position is less than or equal to `end`.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### acceptPosition

          protected FilterSpans.AcceptStatus acceptPosition(Spans spans)
                                                     throws IOException

      Description copied from class: `SpanPositionCheckQuery`
      Implementing classes are required to return whether the current position is a match for the passed in "match" `SpanQuery`. This is only called if the underlying last `Spans.nextStartPosition()` for the match indicated a valid start position.
      Overrides:
        `acceptPosition` in class `SpanPositionRangeQuery`
      Parameters:
        `spans` - The `Spans` instance, positioned at the spot to check
      Returns:
        whether the match is accepted, rejected, or rejected and should move to the next doc.
      Throws:
        `IOException`
      See Also:
        `DocIdSetIterator.nextDoc()`

    - #### toString

          public String toString(String field)

      Description copied from class: `Query`
      Prints a query to a string, with `field` assumed to be the default field and omitted.
      Overrides:
        `toString` in class `SpanPositionRangeQuery`
