Hi Sheldon,
It was my understanding that you should parse the input text yourself
(since you understand the deeper semantics). When you see "MEM12345"
you can add {"MEM12345", "MEM" and "12345"} into the words to index.
This is similar to converting the words to lowercase or stripping
accent
Hi Sheldon,
You will need to write a custom query parser. However, the current
queryParser.jj is the right place to start.
You can easily modify this to have a pattern of _LETTER only and _DIGIT
only.
Currently it allows numbers and letters to be combined as a term.
If you have more questions,
In my project I would like to search for product code such as
MEM12345 either by "MEM" or by "12345". I can't do that right
now in Lucene 1.2. Prefix query doesn't do prefix search followed
by numbers, and there is no "end with" type of search. How do I
modify the HTMLParser to index MEM12345 as
