Public methodDifference (Overrides FilteredTermEnum..::..Difference()()()().)
Public methodDocFreq
Returns the docFreq of the current Term in the enumeration. Returns -1 if no Term matches or all terms have been enumerated.
(Inherited from FilteredTermEnum.)
Public methodEndEnum (Overrides FilteredTermEnum..::..EndEnum()()()().)
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodFinalize

Public methodSkipTo Obsolete.
Skips terms to the first beyond the current whose value is greater or equal to target.

Returns true iff there is such an entry.

Behaves as if written:

            public boolean skipTo(Term target) {
            do {
            if (!next())
            return false;
            } while (target > term());
            return true;
            }
            
Some implementations *could* be considerably more efficient than a linear scan. Check the implementation to be sure.
(Inherited from TermEnum.)

(Inherited from FilteredTermEnum.)
Public methodTermCompare (Overrides FilteredTermEnum..::..TermCompare(Term).)
