: It turns out that I was going over TooManyClauses, and this decided to give : an exception. : : I am not really sure of the reasoning behind this exception?

I'm not understanding your statement. TooManyClauses is a runtime exception that can and will be thrown when a query like PrefixQuery is rewriten to a BooleanQuery -- which happens when a search is executed. so if your problem is that your prefix query was generating too many clauses -- that exception should have in fact been throws ... what do you mean by "this decided to give an exception." if the exception wasn't thrown? -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
