Hi, afriad I'm a noobie at Luncene but read Otis/Eriks book and was hoping someone can answer a quick question on the AliasAnalyzer (Chap 4). I want to build a search for names (Companies/surname, firstname etc) but need to match thing s like Robert= bob, bobby, rob etc (or margaret=peggy etc).
1) The problem is my search returns all Robert or Bob hit's if I search on bob but if I search on Robert only Robert hits come back. I though the index would automatically provide my required 2-way matching? 2) The second problem is to do with Company names. Can I create the above alias analyzer to match I.B.M=IBM=International Business Machines? i.e. multiple words to a single word. Thanks, Dave. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Synonyms-and-Aliases-query-tf3473040.html#a9692225 Sent from the Lucene - Java Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
