<p>This DTD builds on the <a href="LuceneCoreQuery.dtd.html">core Lucene XML syntax</a> and adds support for features found in the "contrib" section of the Lucene project.</p><p>CorePlusExtensionsParser.java is the Java class that encapsulates this parser behaviour.</p><p>The features added are:
<ul>
<li><a href="#LikeThisQuery">LikeThisQuery</a></li>
Support for querying using large amounts of example text indicative of the users' general area of interest
<li><a href="#FuzzyLikeThisQuery">FuzzyLikeThisQuery</a></li>
A style of fuzzy query which automatically looks for fuzzy variations on only the "interesting" terms
<li><a href="#BooleanFilter">BooleanFilter</a></li>
Is to Filters what core Lucene's BooleanQuery is to Queries - allows mixing of clauses using Boolean logic
<li><a href="#TermsFilter">TermsFilter</a></li>
Constructs a filter from an arbitrary set of terms (unlike <a href="#RangeFilter">RangeFilter</a> which requires a contiguous range of terms)
<li><a href="#DuplicateFilter">DuplicateFilter</a></li>
Removes duplicated documents from results where "duplicate" means documents share a value for a particular field (e.g. a primary key)
<li><a href="#BoostingQuery">BoostingQuery</a></li>
Influence score of a query's matches in a subtle way which can't be achieved using BooleanQuery
</ul></p><br />

<p>BooleanQuerys implement Boolean logic which controls how multiple Clauses should be interpreted.
Some clauses may represent optional Query criteria while others represent mandatory criteria.</p><p><span class='inTextTitle'>Example:</span> <em>Find articles about banks, preferably talking about mergers but nothing to do with "sumitomo"</em>

<p>Caches any nested query or filter in an LRU (Least recently used) Cache. Cached queries, like filters, are turned into
Bitsets at a cost of 1 bit per document in the index. The memory cost of a cached query/filter is therefore numberOfDocsinIndex/8 bytes.
Queries that are cached as filters obviously retain none of the scoring information associated with results - they retain just
a Boolean yes/no record of which documents matched.</p><p><span class='inTextTitle'>Example:</span> <em>Search for documents about banks from the last 10 years - caching the commonly-used "last 10 year" filter as a BitSet in
RAM to eliminate the cost of building this filter from disk for every query</em>

<p>Performs fuzzy matching on "significant" terms in fields. Improves on "LikeThisQuery" by allowing for fuzzy variations of supplied fields.
Improves on FuzzyQuery by rewarding all fuzzy variants of a term with the same IDF rather than default fuzzy behaviour which ranks rarer
variants (typically misspellings) more highly. This can be a useful default search mode for processing user input where the end user
is not expected to know about the standard query operators for fuzzy, boolean or phrase logic found in UserQuery</p><p><span class='inTextTitle'>Example:</span> <em>Search for information about the Sumitomo bank, where the end user has mis-spelt the name</em>

IRAQI TROOPS REPORTED PUSHING BACK IRANIANS Iraq said today its troops were pushing Iranian forces out of
positions they had initially occupied when they launched a new offensive near the southern port of
Basra early yesterday. A High Command communique said Iraqi troops had won a significant victory
and were continuing to advance. Iraq said it had foiled a three-pronged thrust some 10 km
(six miles) from Basra, but admitted the Iranians had occupied ground held by the Mohammed al-Qassem
unit, one of three divisions attacked. The communique said Iranian Revolutionary Guards were under
assault from warplanes, helicopter gunships, heavy artillery and tanks. "Our forces are continuing
their advance until they purge the last foothold" occupied by the Iranians, it said.
(Iran said its troops had killed or wounded more than 4,000 Iraqis and were stabilising their new positions.)
The Baghdad communique said Iraqi planes also destroyed oil installations at Iran's southwestern Ahvaz field
during a raid today. It denied an Iranian report that an Iraqi jet was shot down.
Iraq also reported a naval battle at the northern tip of the Gulf. Iraqi naval units and forces defending an
offshore terminal sank six Iranian out of 28 Iranian boats attempting to attack an offshore terminal,
the communique said. Reuters 3;
