Thanks Dmitri :-) -----Original Message----- From: Dmitri Mamrukov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 02 December 2003 17:18 To: Lucene Users List Subject: Re: Searching for -
Hi Iain, There was a discussion about Dash Confusion in QueryParser (search for "t-shirt" - with quota symbols! - or Dash Confusion). They suggested to escape such words by putting quota symbols around them. For instance, ask your application "DISP-NAME" instead of DISP-NAME.
