    All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `int` | `endOffset()` The ending offset of the current match, or `-1` if offsets are not available Should only be called after `MatchesIterator.next()` has returned `true`
    `int` | `endPosition()` The end position of the current match Should only be called after `MatchesIterator.next()` has returned `true`
    `Query` | `getQuery()` Returns the Query causing the current match If this `MatchesIterator` has been returned from a `MatchesIterator.getSubMatches()` call, then returns a `TermQuery` equivalent to the current match Should only be called after `MatchesIterator.next()` has returned `true`
    `MatchesIterator` | `getSubMatches()` Returns a MatchesIterator that iterates over the positions and offsets of individual terms within the current match Returns `null` if there are no submatches (ie the current iterator is at the leaf level) Should only be called after `MatchesIterator.next()` has returned `true`
    `boolean` | `next()` Advance the iterator to the next match position
    `int` | `startOffset()` The starting offset of the current match, or `-1` if offsets are not available Should only be called after `MatchesIterator.next()` has returned `true`
    `int` | `startPosition()` The start position of the current match Should only be called after `MatchesIterator.next()` has returned `true`
