Thanks, Erik. Using the WildcardQuery worked fine, and was much simpler.

Subject: Re: Suffix query
WildcardQuery supports suffix (*something) queries when used through the API
(QueryParser does not allow asterisks at the beginning). So I don't think
what you've done is necessary... just use a WildcardQuery with a leading
asterisk.
There are alternative approaches to this by changing how you index to
accommodate suffix queries (reverse what goes in, reverse it and do a prefix
query during querying).
