The source code to Lucene in Action (www.lucenebook.com) has an example of extending the built-in QueryParser to use SpanNearQuery for in-order phrase searching instead of the default unordered PhraseQuery behavior. That example will show how to use SpanNearQuery made up of SpanTermQuery's. The source code to QueryParser <http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/java/trunk/src/ java/org/apache/lucene/queryParser/QueryParser.jj> shows how to use PhraseQuery directly, if all you want is an example.

Also as Paul mentioned, the test cases in Lucene's source code make great ways to learn how Lucene's API works.

If what you're trying to do is put an in-order wrapper around all of the query types you mentioned, you will have a fair bit more work to do in order to create a parser that can create a SpanNearQuery with SpanRegexQuery's (new in contrib's trunk), and there currently is not a SpanQuery version of FuzzyQuery that I'm aware of.

    Hi, can any one help, I am new to lucene.

Due to requiring a specific Query syntax, I have created a bespoke query parser to build a boolean query which at any time may comprising a mixture of :

a) Fuzzy terms with similarity level set according to length of term.text
  b)  Wild Card Querys
  c)  Term Querys

I would like to ability to define if the Query parser terms require to be in Order or not (but when in order to allow gaps in the term positions).

I can not see see how I can use PhraseQuery or SpanNearQuery directly, can anyone point me in the right direction in how to simulate inOrder to boolean queries.

  Any help will be appreciated.
