as of 2.1, as I remember, you can use leading wildcards but ONLY
you set a flag (see setAllowLeadingWildcard in QueryParser). Be
aware of the TooManyClauses issue though (search the mail
archive and you'll find many discussions of this issue).

Sachin,
Thanks for quick response. Is there any code example i can take look? I'm
not familiar with the technique you mentioned. My question is how the
analyzer knows "buss" is not a plural and bears is a plural.
Lucene supports wildcard. However, we can not use wildcard at the
beginning
of search term such as *bear. is there a way to match *bear* (bear, bears,
forbearance etc.) by search tern "bear"?
thanks
