Well, Query *does* implement the Serializable interface, so that might work. WARNING: I haven't personally used the Serializable interface on Query, so I have no real clue whether it's applicable!
Taking the results of query.toString() and pumping it back through the parser is not guaranteed to produce an equivalent query though. But if you're creating a library of queries, why not just code up the queries as strings and store/reuse those? I'd think about forming a query that I can send through the query parsing, then storing that string for later reuse (i.e. the string you parsed). This has problems if you're constructing the query programatically (say assembling a BooleanQuery in the lucene code) though. not much help I know Erick On Wed, Feb 17, 2010 at 1:44 PM, Aaron Schon <aaron_sc...@yahoo.com> wrote: > Hi all, I know that persisting a Lucene query by query ToString() method. > Is there any way of reconstructing the query from the string itself? > The usecase is that I will be storing a library of queries as strings and > load the appropriate query (from the string) based on some conditions. > > Is this possible?
