I've been hitting my head against a wall all morning trying to figure
this out and haven't managed to get anywhere and wondered if anybody
here can help.
I have defined a field type
<fieldType name="text_au" class="solr.TextField"
positionIncrementGap="100">
<analyzer>
<tokenizer class="solr.LowerCaseTokenizerFactory" />
</analyzer>
</fieldType>
I have two fields
<field name="au" type="text_au" indexed="true" stored="true"
required="false" multiValued="true"/>
<field name="author" type="text_au" indexed="true" stored="false"
multiValued="true"/>
and a copyField line
<copyField source="au" dest="author" />
The idea is to allow searching for authors so a search for
"author:(Hobbs A.U.)" will match the au field value "Hobbs A. U."
(notice the space).
However the query "au:(Hobbs A.U.)" matches and the the query
"author:(Hobbs A.U.)" does not.
Any ideas?
I'm using a Solr 1.4 snapshot

James
