Cheolgoo Kang commented on LUCENE-489: -------------------------------------- Why don't you reverse those analyzed tokens in another field? If you have a field named 'CONTENT', make one another 'CONTENT_R' with all indexing terms reversed. eg, CONTENT:lucene, CONTENT_R:enecul. Then the query of "CONTENT:*xyz" is the same with "CONTENT_R:zyx*" and it would work great with custom QueryParser with QueryParser.getWildcardQuery() method overridden. > Wildcard Queries with leading "*" > --------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-489 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-489 > Project: Lucene - Java > Type: Wish > Components: QueryParser > Reporter: Peter Schäfer > > It would be nice to have wildcard queries with a leading wildcard ("?" or > "*"). > I'm aware that this is a well-known issue, and I do understand the reasons > behind it, > but try explaining that to our end-users ... :-( -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
