Hi!

I'm indexing documents with list of required features (int[] A). And then I  
want to filter docs by the list of available features (int[] B). So that  
all required features must be in a list of available (A & B = A).

I haven't found any appropriate filter for this and understand that this  
problem is hard to solve with inverted index.  
I wonder if there any tricky way to do it? Maybe its possible to set  
minimum\_should\_match of bool filter to the number of required features  
(A.lenght) or something else.

Any thoughts will be helpful.

Thanks!  
Max
