Exact Field Match
Hi, Does Lucene have support for exact field match? Is there a way to say that this field equals exactly this value? I know I can do it by using an untokenized field. But I have some values that I would want to store in both tokenized and untokenized copies of the same field. Instead of doing that I'm just storing the tokenized version. For example: MyField = My value. I want to search where My value. is the exact match for this field but I also sometime want to do a containing search so that just a query for value matches. I'm planning on extracting the stored value and comparing it to see if its an exact match. If you have a better idea please send it my way!

Re: Number query not working
Thanks Erik! That showed me the problem right away. -Reece --- Lucene Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On May 26, 2004, at 6:38 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It looks like its because I'm using the SimpleAnalyzer instead of the StandardAnalyzer.

Re: Number query not working
Whoa! I reread my last post and the last sentence didn't make much sense. This is what I meant to say: What is the SimpleAnalyzer doing to this query to make it not work? --- Lucene Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, It looks like its because I'm using the SimpleAnalyzer instead of the StandardAnalyzer.

Range searches for numbers
Hi, What's the best way to store numbers for range searching? If someone has some info about this I'd love to see it. This is my current plan: When I convert the number to a string I will zero pad it so range searches work. The conversions will be like this for integers: 1 to 101 2 to 102 1000 to 1001000 I'm just adding a 1 to the start of the string (or adding 10). This is so negative numbers work too! They will just be subtracted from a long (10): -1 to 099 -2 to 098 -1000 to 0999000 This works great for range searches. But how do I convert negative longs? I can't subtract 100 from a long can I? It too big to fit in another long. Any advice is appreciated! -Reece - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Range searches for numbers
Thanks for the info. The Date formatter doesn't work because it can only deal with positive longs. My problem was how to handle the negatives but I got it figured out. Thanks! --- Lucene Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Quick reference: http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-lucene/SearchNumericalFields If you are stuck, you can always encode the long in a string format (the date formatter in lucene might do this already). Or even, you could also treat it like a date and use your long like a date filter. HTH, sv On 6 May 2004 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, What's the best way to store numbers for range searching?
