Hey it does. Thanks. I first thought it was a bug and I would have liked an easier solution. (for ex: stop the Analyzer to condiser ':' as a stop word ) I don't think I need to use the RegExpAnalyzer for hwaddr since the Standard one also cuts on ':'. I'm going to use :slop=>1, :in_order => true And I'll try to detect hwaddr search queries to feed SpanNearQuery accordingly by looking for ':' in the query and see if the word before ':' matches a fieldname. (if it doesn't and looks like a hwaddr I'll feed SpanNearQuery) Pretty sure that could be done in a nicer way. (don't hesitate to make suggestions :)) Also if there's other ways to index mac addresses without splitting on : I would be interested to read about them. (especially if I can use the query without too much processing) Anyway, Thanks again for the quick answer. -- _______________________________________________ Ferret-talk mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/ferret-talk
