I don't think that there is any other way out apart from re-indexing in all-small or all-caps case(through an Analyzer or externally), and then searching in the same case as you used while indexing. Even if you find a way by which you can run case insensitive searches, I am sure it'll add to the complexity at the search time. QueryFilter is used to filter down the search results and I doubt if it'll solve your problem.

Hi all, my lucene index is prepared for search, but I forgot to change all the english word to lower case. When I search, I have to type the same case as in lucene index. I found that QueryFilter may solve the problem, but it seems that it's used for filter query, not the lucene index. How do I ignore the case in lucene index? -- Li-Hao Cho [EMAIL PROTECTED] Department of Computer Science National Cheng Chi University, Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C." --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
