Yes. But why not just store textual content in one Lucene field, and metadata in one or more separate fields? You can then easily build queries to combine searches. And as long as metadata values are normalized, added index size is probably insignificant compared to full indexed text content. -+ Tatu +- > > Thanks > Mike > > > > > > > > Stephane James > Vaucher > <[EMAIL PROTECTED] To > qc.ca> Lucene Users List > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > 04/28/2004 10:38 cc > AM > Subject > Re: Combining text search + > Please respond to relational search > "Lucene Users > List" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > rta.apache.org> > > > > > > > I'm a bit confused why you want this. > > As far as I know, but relational db searches will return exact > matches without a mesure of relevancy.
