Hi, I am a newbie to Solr and request you all to kindly excuse any rookie mistakes.
I have the following questions: We use the Synonym Filter on one of the indexed fields. It is specified in the schema.xml as one of the filters (for the analyzer type index) for that field. I believe that this means any tokens which match an entry in the provided synonym file will have all the forms indexed provided expanded=true. I am able to verify that by using the Solr admin analysis tool. However when I use Luke to examine a document in the index which would have synonyms for that particular field, I see only the original value and do not see the additional forms that should be added due to the synonym match for the field in question. I am not sure if I am missing something here. How do I verify the same? Another related question The field in question here is not specified as multivalued. However, as I understand it a synonym match will mean multiple values for that field. I was not able to find any documentation that explains this in detail and would like to know how this particular case impacts the indexing of that field, scoring, etc. How does the behavior of a field having multiple values due to SynonymFilter compare and contrast with the multivalued=true|false flag. What would a synonym match expansion for a field with multivalued=false mean? Prasanna.
