Hi Rakesh, Here's a version that should work (warning: untested):
TermQuery notPublishedQuery = new TermQuery(new Term("i_published", "false")); PrefixQuery topicQuery = new PrefixQuery (new Term("i_topicsClasses.id", "1_1_*_*")); String searchCriteria = "Indoor*"; Term titleTerm = new Term ("i_title", searchCriteria.toLowerCase()); TermQuery titleQuery = new TermQuery(titleTerm); Term descTerm = new Term ("i_description", searchCriteria.toLowerCase()); TermQuery descQuery = new TermQuery(descTerm); BooleanQuery titleOrDescQuery = new BooleanQuery(); titleOrDescQuery.add (titleQuery, BooleanClause.Occur.SHOULD); titleOrDescQuery.add (descQuery, BooleanClause.Occur.SHOULD); BooleanQuery topLevelQuery = new BooleanQuery(); topLevelQuery.add (titleOrDescQuery, BooleanClause.Occur.MUST); topLevelQuery.add (notPublishedQuery, BooleanClause.Occur.MUST_NOT); topLevelQuery.add (topicQuery, BooleanClause.Occur.MUST); Three points worthy of note concerning the above code: 1. In the second version of your code, TermQuery's for "Indoor*" were attempting to match the literal string "Indoor*", and never expanding the query to search for all index terms that begin with "Indoor". I have substituted PrefixQuery's. 2. PrefixQuery's do NOT analyze their arguments, so the initial-uppercase "Indoor*" will expand to nothing in the index, because (I assume) the index was constructed with the StandardAnalyzer, which invokes a LowercaseFilter. Hence: searchCriteria.toLowerCase(). 3. Mixing QueryParser calls with manual Query construction is hard to follow - in the above code I do away with calls to QueryParser, instead manually calling constructors for the appropriate query types.
