The use-case is with autocompleting fields. The user might know a frequency starts with 2 so we want to limit those results (e.g. 2, 23, 214, etc.). We would still index/store the numeric-type but maintain an additional string index for autocompleting (and regular expressions). We can throw away the "contains" but will at least need the "starts with" behavior. - Todd -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Wildcard-Regex-Searching-with-Decimal-Fields-tp4206015p4206398.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
