: (1) How does one ensure that Solr treats words like .Net and 3D correctly ? : Right now, they get : translated into Net and 3 d respectively.
Solr doesn't do anything special with your input by default -- it only does what your schema.xml tells it to do .. if you use the example schema, then some text fields might be configured to use the WordDelimiterFilter (which would split 3D into 3, D) ... if you don't like that behavior you cna change it .. there are a lot of Tokenizer and TokenFilter options available out of the box ... all of which are well documented on the Wiki, and as you ply with them it's easy to see what they do using the ANALYSIS link on the Solr admin screen. -Hoss
