David Smiley updated SOLR-18256:
--------------------------------
Labels: newdev (was: )
> Auto-fix pure negative (NOT) clauses in the "lucene" QParser
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SOLR-18256
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-18256
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: David Smiley
> Priority: Major
> Labels: newdev
>
> When the lucene query parser parses a negative query — one where all boolean
> clauses are prohibited, such as {{NOT bar}} , possibly as a sub-expression
> (parenthesis wrapped) — the resulting {{BooleanQuery}} matches no documents.
> This is not what people intuitively expect. I've seen code work around this,
> and it's really annoying. I've also seen code _forget_ to do this, resulting
> in undesired behavior. This has been a long-standing gotcha to stub your toe
> on with Solr development.
> While it can be argued the fix should be in Lucene, I think Lucene is
> stubborn on this point, as there is _some_ sense in the current behavior. I
> may pursue an opt-in improvement to BooleanQuery.Builder.
