Hello,
Still working on the same query, here is the code I am currently working
with.
I am thinking this should bring up all the documents that have
olFaithFull=stillHere and kcfileupload!=jpg (so anything else)
query1 = QueryParser.parse("jpg", "kcfileupload", new StandardAnalyzer());
query2 = QueryParser.parse("stillHere", "olFaithFull", new
StandardAnalyzer());
BooleanQuery typeNegativeSearch = new BooleanQuery();
typeNegativeSearch.add(query1, false, true);
typeNegativeSearch.add(query2, true, false);
There toString() on the query is:
-kcfileupload:jpg +olFaithFull:stillhere
This looks right to me. Why the 0 results?
Thanks,
Luke
