This can be added using PhrasePrefixQuery (which is slightly misnamed):

Hi Daniel,

I couldn't figure out how to use the PharsePrefixQuery with a phase like java* 
developer. It only provides method to add terms. Can a term contain wildcard 
character in lucene?

Thanks,
Terence

Hi Morus,

I want to search for the string like below:

- java developer
- javascript developer

By searching java*, it will return more than I want. That's why I am thinking 
java* developer.

 That's not just QueryParser.

 You could have a query text:java* developer if '*' isn't removed by the 
 analyzer. But it would only search for the token 'java*' not any expansion of 
 that. I guess this is not, what you want.

Help on the Query Parser

2004-11-23 Thread Terence Lai
Hi all,

I am trying to use the QueryParser.parse() to parse a query string like java* 
developer. Note that I want the wildcard string, java*, followed by the word 
developer. The following is the code.

-
String qryStr = \java* developer\;
String fieldname = text;
StandardAnalyzer analyzer = new StandAnalyzer();

Query qry = org.apache.lucene.queryParser.QueryParser.parse(qryStr, fieldname, 
analyzer);
-

When I do a qryStr.toString() to print out the contents, I got the following 
output:

-
text:java developer
-

Look likes that the wildcard query disappeared. In fact, I am expecting 
text:java* developer to be returned. It seems to me that the QueryParser 
cannot handle the wildcard within a quoted String.

Does anyone has a solution on this? Am I missing something in the code?

Thanks,
Terence
