Hi,
According to the FAQ, by indexing the title of the document and performing a
search against the shorter field will automatically give it a higher weight
than matches against the document content. That is what I am trying to
accomplish with a "NAME" field. If someone enters a close match of the name of
a document (example Names: "Color Me Mine" ,"Pittsburgh and Its Countryside"),
I want that document to get a hit. The search is user entered, so I want it to
be case-insensitive. I also don't want it to have to be an exact match.
Search terms such as "Pittsburgh Countryside" should match up against a name of
"Pittsburgh and Its Countryside".
Here I am adding the name field to my document:
String value= "Color Me Mine";
document.add(new Field("NAME", value, Field.Store.YES,
Field.Index.TOKENIZED));
Performing a search:
NAME:color me mine ->returns no results
NAME:color -> returns the document
I tried indexing the document without the value tokenized:
document.add(new Field("NAME", value, Field.Store.YES,
Field.Index.UN_TOKENIZED));
This caused the search to be case sensitive.
I am about to modify my indexing/searching code to use a secondary field,
"name_lowercase", this field would of course contain the name of the object in
lowercase and I would lowercase my search terms in I construct my TermQuery for
this field.
Is this a valid approach, or am I missing something?
Thanks!
