Jack Krupansky commented on SOLR-3744:
--------------------------------------
Personally, I think the proper fix is in Lucene BooleanQuery itself - if no
positive clauses are present, a MatchAllDocsQuery should be added as a MUST
clause.
For example, currently if you have only one clause and it is MUST_NOT, BQ
explicitly rewrites to MatchNoDocsQuery.
See:
https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/blob/master/lucene/core/src/java/org/apache/lucene/search/BooleanQuery.java
Any objection from the core Lucene committers?
What does ES do when no positive clauses are present in a subquery?
> Solr LuceneQParser only handles pure negative queries at the top-level query,
> but not within parenthesized sub-queries

> Key: SOLR-3744
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3744
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: query parsers
> Affects Versions: 3.6.1, 4.0-BETA
> Reporter: Jack Krupansky
>
> The SolrQuerySyntax wiki says that pure negative queries are supported ("Pure
> negative queries (all clauses prohibited) are allowed"), which is true at the
> top-level query, but not for sub-queries enclosed within parentheses.
> See:
> http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrQuerySyntax
> Some queries that will not evaluate properly:
> test AND (-fox)
> test (-fox)
> test OR (abc OR (-fox))
> test (-fox)
> Sub-queries combined with the "AND" and "OR" keyword operators also fail to
> evaluate properly. For example,
> test OR -fox
> -fox OR test
> Note that all of these queries are supported properly by the edismax query
> parser.
