I am parsing very large files with "search terms" that will be submitted to a Lucene Index. My current problem is that some of the terms have some "special" characters in them that blow up when the phrase is parsed. An example would be "My Search Phrase (alternate". I won't be adding any special Booleans or Clauses around the text.
My basic line of code that build the Query object is ... Query query = MultiFieldQueryParser.parse(term.toLowerCase(), fields, new StandardAnalyzer()); Thanks in advance for any input. KLCobb
