John,
Thanks, I think I'm getting this now.... So you created your own
BooleanQuery and parsed the string yourself, adding strings as
TermQuerys etc., rather than using a QueryParser ?
Cheers,

Chris,
I've had similar requirements in the past. First strip the quotes then
create a BooleanQuery consisting of two separate queries.
1. TermQuery for the first term - Fred
2. PrefixQuery for the second term - Flintstone
When you add each individual query to the BooleanQuery make sure the
BooleanClause.Occur parameter is set to MUST (look at the BooleanQuery API
docs).
Use the toString() method on the BooleanQuery after it's created to make
sure you did it correctly.

Hi,
Can someone point me in the right direction please?
How can I trap this situation correctly? I receive user queries like
this (quotes included):
/from:"fred flintston*"/
Which produces a query string of
/+from:fred body:flintston/ (where /body/ is the default field)
What I want is:
/ +from:fred +from:flintston*/
In other words, I want quoted expressions to be treated as single units..
Thanks for any pointers,
- Chris
