The standard way to do this is to additionally index the reverse of all strings/tokens, potentially in a different field "reverse:", ie index forward:abcd as well as reverse:dcba. Then in queries of the form "*cd", reverse the query to "dc*" so that you end up with "reverse:dc*"
in your example that would be "reverse:321-*" --marc John Powers wrote:
Hello, Lucene only lets you use a wildcard after a term, not before, correct? What work arounds are there for that? If I have an item 108585-123 And another 332323-123 How can I look for all the -123 family of items?
