Well the I do not have phrases for synonym expansion. So it does work well. The synonym expansion is done at query time. And since i am just searching against the first name field, tf, idf and other ranking parameters do not make sense, hence their weight has been initialized to 1. So after applying synonym expansion I am getting results in random word format.
the Results are perfect just that they are not ordered by Levenstein distance of the original query. So the use case is if use enters query ab it gets expanded at query time to abc,abxy,aberfg And I get results for ab, abc, abxy, aberfg. But I want them to be sorted by Levenstein distance from the original query (ab) So order shoud be ab abc abxy aberfg ...... ! TextField makes this even more difficult? Any other suggestions? Spellcheckers? Ngrams? -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Difference-between-textfield-and-strfield-tp3986916p3986928.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
