Before going down this path I'd really recommend you get a copy of Luke and look at your index. Depending upon the analyzer you're using, you may or may not have w*orld indexed. You may have the tokens: w orld
with the * dropped completely. As far as I know, NO_NORMS has nothing to do with tokenization, the critical question is what *analyzer* you're using to index. And you could always sidestep the issue entirely by pre-processing your text and query to replace * with something else. But for escaping, see: http://lucene.apache.org/java/2_3_2/queryparsersyntax.html Best Erick 2008/8/19 Сергій Карпенко <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Hello > > For example, we have a text: > > " Hello w*orld" > it's indexed as NO_NORMS, so this phrase is term. > > And I have a code: > > Query query = new WildcardQuery(new Term("field", " Hello w*orld")); its > work > > But I need symbol '*' as ordinary symbol, not escape symbol. > > The QueryParser's analogue '\\*' > Query query = new WildcardQuery(new Term("field", " Hello w\\*orld")); > don't wokrs. > > Thanks > > > >
