In my case the query engine is very generic and, along side the QueryParser,
doesn't know about the fields. So I can't decide whether a TermRangeQuery
and a NumericRangeQuery.
How about a syntax like:
> numericfield:[{1 TO 10}]
>
Using Luke this seems to parse into a TermRangeQuery with the { } in place.
It should be possible to pick this case out in newRangeQuery and construct a
NumericRangeQuery instead.
Would you know if this is likely to cause other unwanted effects when used
with more complicated query strings?
Thanks
