> Input: QueryCreated Remarks
> c\+\+ c (Escape character not working)
The StandardTokenizer and QueryParser will drop the ++ sign. This problem is
similar to the recent thread. Search the archive the the following strings
'-' characer not interpreted correctly in field names
You may be able to implement similar solution to the one that I've posted.
Actually your query got me interested, I've tried my solution for c-- and the
-- signs are dropped. This because I define DASHESWORD as
| <DASHESWORD: <ALPHANUM> ("-" <ALPHANUM>)+ >
This will search for t-shirt, but not tshirt-. Yet another QueryParser
peculiarity :)
If you absolutely has to search for c++ then I suggest you define another
token which encompasses all alpharnumeric word and plus sign. For example
(modify StandardTokenizer.jj):
<MYTOKEN: (<ALPHANUM>|"+")+ >
add the line:
token = <MYTOKEN>
in the next() method. This may work.

As expected.
> *c - (throws an exception - [NOTE-2]
There has been a number of discussion on this subject, search the mailing list
for more information.

Depends how do you look at it. QueryParser will throw ParseException if it has
parsing issues, you can in some way treat this as the validation.
