Hello everybody.
I'm a relative newbie with lucene, but I've got it set up on my system and it's working well.
I'd like it to be the case that the default behaviour is to search across all the Fields of all my Documents. At the moment, when I create my Document object, the last thing I do is to create an extra Field called 'all', whose content is the concatinated contents of all the other fields. Then, when I use the QueryParser, I pass in 'all' as the value of the default field parameter.
This works, but it makes my index a little under twice as large as it would otherwise be. That's not a great problem as I'm nowhere near bound by storage space (yet), but it feels a bit weird. I can't use a MultiFieldQueryParser, because at the point where I parse the query, I don't actually know the names of the fields.
Have I missed the correct way to do this?
Thanks in advance, Peter Pimley
