wildcard search with variable length

Hi guys, I share same problem, that my czech analyzer has dependency on the icu4j. My opinion is to put interface between your code and icu4j. Because new JDK 1.6 should have more features from icu4j included. Samphan you can also look at http://getopt.org/stempel/ Stempel algorithm, even I

Hello, I have integrated your patches for the numeric range searching a few monthes ago. We are now in the process of integrating it to our application. It works fine, but I just ran into what seems to be a bug: searches using inclusive ranges starting at 0 (example: field=[0 TO 2000]) seem t

Arguing about this won't change the code. A well-constructed patch might (but there are no guarantees). To me, this sounds like an uphill battle. If we want to add a feature to wildcard 0-N characters at the end of a word, then I don't think we'd use '?' plus a flag. Rather I think it would
