Don't know what goes wrong on your side, but this works just fine.
Maybe your fields are too long so that only part of it gets indexed
(look at IndexWriter.maxFieldLength).
A test program
import org.apache.lucene.document.*;
import org.apache.lucene.analysis.*;
import org.apache.lucene.index.*;
import org.apache.lucene.store.*;
import org.apache.lucene.search.*;
import org.apache.lucene.queryParser.QueryParser;
class LuceneTest
{
static String[] docs = {
"a c",
"b d",
"c e",
"d f",
};
static String[] queries = {
"a",
"b",
"c",
"d",
"b OR c"
};
public static void main(String argv[]) throws Exception {
Directory dir = new RAMDirectory();
String[] stop = {};
Analyzer analyzer = new StandardAnalyzer(stop);
IndexWriter writer = new IndexWriter(dir, analyzer, true);
// index documents (2 fields text each)
for ( int i=0; i < docs.length; i+=2 ) {
Document doc = new Document();
doc.add(Field.Text("text", docs[i]));
doc.add(Field.Text("text", docs[i+1]));
writer.addDocument(doc);
}
writer.close();
Searcher searcher = new IndexSearcher(dir);
for ( int i=0; i < queries.length; i++ ) {
Query query = QueryParser.parse(queries[i], "text", analyzer);
Hits hits = searcher.search(query);
System.out.println("Query: " + query.toString("text"));
System.out.println(" " + hits.length() + " documents found");
for ( int j=0; j < hits.length(); j++ ) {
Document doc = hits.doc(j);
System.out.println("\t"+hits.id(j) + ": " + doc.get("text") + "\t "
+ hits.score(j));
//System.out.println(" "+ searcher.explain(query, hits.id(j)));
}
}
}
}
shows that search takes place in both fields.
Query: a
1 documents found
0: b d 0.5
Query: b
1 documents found
0: b d 0.5
Query: c
2 documents found
0: b d 0.2972674
1: d f 0.2972674
Query: d
2 documents found
0: b d 0.2972674
1: d f 0.2972674
Query: b c
2 documents found
0: b d 0.581694
1: d f 0.0759574
But note, that this affects scoring as concatenation would.
So I think Otis answer is a bit missleading.
If you don't want the effects on scoring you AFAIK need to use different
documents or fields.
