: in my search criteria i am using a criteria "apache tomcat" but it is : giving me a parse exception.
if i understand you correctly, you're saying that when searchQuery is... "apache tomcat" you get a parse error? .. is that by any chance because you are allways attaching a "*" to the end of searchQuery in the makeWildcardQuery method, so what you wind up passing to the QueryParser is... "apache tomcat"* ... ? ... that's not a legal query string. : : my searcher has this piece of code: : : searchQuery=makeWildcardQuery(searchQuery); : masterQuery.add(MultiFieldQueryParser.parse(searchQuery,fields,analyzer),REQUIRED,PROHIBITED); : : : : : private String makeWildcardQuery(String query) : { : String result = query.trim(); : : if (0 != result.length()) : { : if (!result.endsWith("*")) : { : result = result + "*"; : } : } : : return result; : } : : Thanks and Regards : Krishnendra Nandi : Hewitt Associates India (Pvt.)
