Adriano Crestani commented on LUCENE-1768:
------------------------------------------

Vinicius: you are right, contrib QP configuration is very complicated, that's 
why Phillip is working on another GSOC project to make it simpler. So don't 
worry much about the best way to use the config API, since it will change, just 
make it work for now using the old API ;). You have a good point when you 
mentioned the escaper problem with Locale. I should think more about it...

Uwe: Are you intending to commit the patch only at the end of gsoc? Just 
wondering, since Vinicius is not selecting the ASF checkbox when submitting the 
patch, which means the current patches will not be able to be committed.

> It would be good to specify some type of "schema" for the query parser in 
> future, to automatically create NumericRangeQuery for different numeric 
> types? It would then be possible to index a numeric value 
> (double,float,long,int) using NumericField and then the query parser knows, 
> which type of field this is and so it correctly creates a NumericRangeQuery 
> for strings like "[1.567..*]" or "(1.787..19.5]".
> There is currently no way to extract if a field is numeric from the index, so 
> the user will have to configure the FieldConfig objects in the ConfigHandler. 
> But if this is done, it will not be that difficult to implement the rest.
> The only difference between the current handling of RangeQuery is then the 
> instantiation of the correct Query type and conversion of the entered numeric 
> values (simple Number.valueOf(...) cast of the user entered numbers). 
> Evenerything else is identical, NumericRangeQuery also supports the MTQ 
> rewrite modes (as it is a MTQ).
> Another thing is a change in Date semantics. There are some strange flags in 
> the current parser that tells it how to handle dates.
