Jeff, how would one use the lower level Java API to perform a text
search on a field of a given type?

For example, if you had an Object with a field of type String which
stored keywords such as:
String keywords = "tree, grass, green"

is there an easy way to say "retrieve all types which has the term
'green' as a given keyword"?

Thanks
