Hi folks,
what's the idea behind the fact that no text analysis (e.g. lowercasing)
is performed on wildcarded search terms?
In my context this behaviour seems to be counter-intuitive (I guess
that's the case in the majority of applications) and my application
needs to lowercase any input term before sending the HTTP request to my
Solr server.
Would it be easy to disable this behaviour in Solr (1.5)? I would like
to see a config parameter (per field type) that allows to disable this
"odd" behaviour if needed. To ensure backward compatibility the "odd"
behaviour should be the default anymore.
Am I missing any drawbacks?
Best,
Sascha
