But indeed "POST" does not match to "POST?". If you are not tokenizing the field, the character "?" remains there together with everything else.

Hi, i have a problem with getting a exact match on a non-tokenized field. I have a Lucene Document with a field named "element" which is stored and indexed but not tokenized. The value of the field is "POST" (uppercase). But the only way i can match the field is by entering "element:POST?" or "element:POST*" in the QueryParser class. Have anyone here run into this problem? I am using the 1.2 release version of Lucene.
