I have created strings like the below &&searchtext +sampletext
and when I try to search the following using *&&** or *+** it does not give any result. I am using QueryParser.escape(String s) method to handle the special characters but does not look like it did anything. Also, when I search something like this: title:search* it works and returns the search result but when I search like the following, it wont work title:*&&** ( No Result) Is the above valid search criteria? If not, can someone suggest here what would be appropriate search criteria? Seems like StandardAnalyzer is stripping out all the special characters and searching and that's why when we search without special characters, it does seem to work.
