No, I mean make up a field in your POJO that _is_ indexed and automatically
populate it with the value you want to index. A very crude example is
something like this:
class Person {
// ...
String name;
@Index String nameNormalized;
public void setName(String value) {
name = value;
nameNormalized = value.toLowerCase();
}
}
Now you can filter by nameNormalized and voila, you have case-insensitive
queries.
You might have to get imaginative about how you create these synthetic
indexes, of course - especially when you have nested layers of collections
of EmbeddedEntity. But you should be able to figure out something that will
work.
