If wildcards and fuzzyies are supported, why not range ?

We have a custom "range in phrase" parser, and it works really well, but we would like to use standard Lucene is possible.

             Project: Lucene - Java
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: QueryParser
    Affects Versions: 2.4
            Reporter: Mark Harwood
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.4.1


An extension to the default QueryParser that overrides the parsing of PhraseQueries to allow more complex syntax e.g. wildcards in phrase queries.

The implementation feels a little hacky - this is arguably better handled in QueryParser itself. This works as a proof of concept for much of the query parser syntax. Examples from the Junit test include:

checkMatches("\"j* smyth~\"", "1,2"); //wildcards and fuzzies are OK in phrases
                checkMatches("\"(jo* -john)  smith\"", "2"); // boolean logic 
works
                checkMatches("\"jo*  smith\"~2", "1,2,3"); // position logic 
works.
                
checkBadQuery("\"jo* id:1 smith\""); //mixing fields in a phrase is bad
                checkBadQuery("\"jo* \"smith\" \""); //phrases inside phrases 
is bad
checkBadQuery("\"jo* [sma TO smZ]\" \""); //range queries inside phrases not supported

Code plus Junit test to follow...
