[Xapian-discuss] Document weighting in 1.1

Okay, after a bit of googling I have discovered this:

http://trac.xapian.org/browser/trunk/xapian-core/docs/postingsource.rst

Which I think Richard was suggesting. However I get to the examples
section and it is just a FIXME.

Could someone give an example on how to use a PostingSource as the
second example given in the introduction as that seems exactly what I
am trying to do. (To boost weight of documents)

However from a bit more googling I get the impression that
PostingSource is not useable in in the PHP bindings. Is it useable in
Python bindings? Also where would one start to make PostingSource work
in PHP? Is this where I have to dust off my C skills from Uni and
start making PHP extensions?

Thanks
John
