My goal is to be able to get meaningful results from search queries that include some words that are on the default stop words list, especially "not". I am using the StandardAnalyzer and I have tried passing in null and an empty set for the set of stop words to use in the constructor hoping that no words would be stripped but I am getting strange results.
If I enter a query of just the word "not" I get no matches. If I run a query with just the word "included" I get lots of matches. If I run the query "not included" (without surrounding quotation marks) I get lots of matches and the highlighter indicates that "not" is one of the matching fragments. But if I run the query ""not included"" (with surrounding quotation marks) I get no matches even though there are many occurrences in the content of that exact phrase which were matched when I entered the same query without the quotation marks. What's going on here? Why can't I search for the word "not" by itself or in a quote? Similar behaviour happens for other words like "the" but I am explicitly telling the analyzer not to remove any words (or so I believe). How can I achieve a StandardAnalyzer where every word in the query is significant?
