## Public Member Functions
| MSetIterator ()
| Create an uninitialised iterator; this cannot be used, but is convenient syntactically.
| MSetIterator (const MSetIterator &other)
| Copying is allowed (and is cheap).
void | operator= (const MSetIterator &other)
| Assignment is allowed (and is cheap).
MSetIterator & | operator++ ()
| Advance the iterator.
MSetIterator | operator++ (int)
| Advance the iterator (postfix variant).
MSetIterator & | operator-- ()
| Decrement the iterator.
MSetIterator | operator-- (int)
| Decrement the iterator (postfix variant).
Xapian::docid | operator * () const
| Get the document ID for the current position.
Xapian::Document | get_document () const
| Get a Xapian::Document object for the current position.
Xapian::doccount | get_rank () const
| Get the rank of the document at the current position.

| Get the collapse key for this document.
Xapian::doccount | get_collapse_count () const
| Get an estimate of the number of documents that have been collapsed into this one.
Xapian::percent | get_percent () const
| This returns the weight of the document as a percentage score.

## Detailed Description

An iterator pointing to items in an MSet.

This is used for access to individual results of a match.

## Member Typedef Documentation

typedef std::bidirectional_iterator_tag Xapian::MSetIterator::iterator_category

Allow use as an STL iterator.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Xapian::MSetIterator::MSetIterator | ( |  | ) | `[inline]`

Create an uninitialised iterator; this cannot be used, but is convenient syntactically.

Xapian::MSetIterator::MSetIterator | ( | const MSetIterator & | other | ) | `[inline]`

Copying is allowed (and is cheap).

## Member Function Documentation

void Xapian::MSetIterator::operator= | ( | const MSetIterator & | other | ) | `[inline]`

Assignment is allowed (and is cheap).

MSetIterator& Xapian::MSetIterator::operator++ | ( |  | ) | `[inline]`

Advance the iterator.

MSetIterator Xapian::MSetIterator::operator++ | ( | int |  | ) | `[inline]`

Advance the iterator (postfix variant).

MSetIterator& Xapian::MSetIterator::operator-- | ( |  | ) | `[inline]`

Decrement the iterator.

MSetIterator Xapian::MSetIterator::operator-- | ( | int |  | ) | `[inline]`

Decrement the iterator (postfix variant).

Xapian::docid Xapian::MSetIterator::operator * | ( |  | ) | const

Get the document ID for the current position.

Xapian::Document Xapian::MSetIterator::get_document | ( |  | ) | const

Get a Xapian::Document object for the current position.

This method returns a Xapian::Document object which provides the information about the document pointed to by the MSetIterator.

If the underlying database has suitable support, using this call (rather than asking the database for a document based on its document ID) will enable the system to ensure that the correct data is returned, and that the document has not been deleted or changed since the query was performed.

Returns:
  A Xapian::Document object containing the document data.

Exceptions:

  | Xapian::DocNotFoundError | The document specified could not be found in the database.

Xapian::doccount Xapian::MSetIterator::get_rank | ( |  | ) | const`[inline]`

Get the rank of the document at the current position.

The rank is the position that this document is at in the ordered list of results of the query. The document judged "most relevant" will have rank of 0.

Xapian::weight Xapian::MSetIterator::get_weight | ( |  | ) | const

Get the weight of the document at the current position.

std::string Xapian::MSetIterator::get_collapse_key | ( |  | ) | const

Get the collapse key for this document.

Xapian::doccount Xapian::MSetIterator::get_collapse_count | ( |  | ) | const

Get an estimate of the number of documents that have been collapsed into this one.

The estimate will always be less than or equal to the actual number of other documents satisfying the match criteria with the same collapse key as this document.

This method may return 0 even though there are other documents with the same collapse key which satisfying the match criteria. However if this method returns non-zero, there definitely are other such documents. So this method may be used to inform the user that there are "at least N other matches in this group", or to control whether to offer a "show other documents in this group" feature (but note that it may not offer it in every case where it would show other documents).

Xapian::percent Xapian::MSetIterator::get_percent | ( |  | ) | const

This returns the weight of the document as a percentage score.

The return value will be in the range 0 to 100: 0 meaning that the item did not match the query at all.

std::string Xapian::MSetIterator::get_description | ( |  | ) | const

Returns a string describing this object.

Introspection method.
