Hello, I'm new here. I've actually started using dotLucene but I think I
need to make a change to the QueryParser but it's so complicated to try and
understand what it's doing I thought I'd ask if maybe one of you guys could
point me in the right direction?
In my implementation of Lucene I have the need to store keywords that are of
the form "<key>:<identity>" for example CI:123. Whilst I can store this in
Lucene using Field.Keyword("ID","CI:123") I can't easily look it up by using
QueryParser which I need to do.
Whenever I parse the query ID:CI:123 it parses it as "ID:ci". Now I've
already made a small hack so that non-tokenized values are indexed as
lowercase so at least I can get them back if I use ID:CI\:123 but colons are
commonly used and I really don't want to have to escape them everywhere
What I want to achieve is that query parser will parse ID:CI:123 as
field(ID) value(CI:123). I understand that colon is a special character but
it's only used to delimit fields and values in which case it makes sense to
react to the first colon, the second colon should be treated as part of the
text which the analyzer could strip out or keep (in my case because I'm
using a custom analyzer).
Does this make sense? How do I go about changing the QueryParserTokenManager
to achieve this? Perhaps you can point me to some documentation that
describes the code even?
Any help gratefully received!
Thanks,
Gwyn Carwardine
