I'm trying to get our query syntax mapped into the QueryParsers Syntax.

I have two ideas for approaching this.

1.) I could try to do this externally to Lucene. I could just take my queries and filter them into lucene queries.

2.) However, I have an idea that I might be able th modify the the JavaCC file to produce another QueryParser that works with my syntax, my syntax is similar to that already used by queryparser, but has a couple of minor differences. (like "="'s instead of ":"'s).

It would be good for me to experiment with the JavaCC QueryParser stuff because I would also like to write utilities that translate one syntax into another so that when I have external indexes that need to be added to my project I can map thier syntax into my own as well. I figure if I can use the QueryParser to produce query objects from query strings, I should be able to pass Query Objects to the QueryParser and get Back query strings in that particular parser format. Is this a valid Idea?
