## Detailed Description

An iterator pointing to items in a list of terms.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Xapian::TermIterator::TermIterator | ( | const TermIterator & | other | ) |

Copying is allowed.

The internals are reference counted, so copying is also cheap.

## Member Function Documentation

Xapian::doccount Xapian::TermIterator::get_termfreq | ( |  | ) | const

Return the term frequency of the current term (if meaningful).

The term frequency is the number of documents which a term indexes.

Xapian::termcount Xapian::TermIterator::get_wdf | ( |  | ) | const

Return the wdf of the current term (if meaningful).

The wdf (within document frequency) is the number of occurrences of a term in a particular document.

void Xapian::TermIterator::operator= | ( | const TermIterator & | other | ) |

Assignment is allowed.

The internals are reference counted, so assignment is also cheap.

void Xapian::TermIterator::skip_to | ( | const std::string & | tname | ) |

Advance the iterator to the specified term.

If the specified term isn't in the list, position ourselves on the first term after it (or at_end() if no greater terms are present).
