Hi, I see why the existing syntax cannot be used to automatically generate a NumericRange. But, is it possible to extend the QueryParser to include additional syntax for a numeric range. e.g.
numericfield:[1;10] > The user can be trained to use this syntax for certain fields (i.e those that I know are indexed as NumericField) Thanks Anuj On 3 February 2011 16:22, Uwe Schindler <u...@thetaphi.de> wrote: > Hi Anuj, > > You have to subclass QueryParser and override newRangeQuery() to parse > yourself.
