Hi Everyone, I've got an Analysis question related to both Lucene and Solr (sorry for the cross posting).
i've created a custom analysis chain part of a field type for the title field in my schema representing Businesses. I've created an addition field called title_sort where I copied the original title into title_sort. My analysis chain is a variant of alphaOnlySort however, what it does it instead of using KeywordTokenizer, and keeping all the tokens together is that I use WhitespaceTokenizer, do stopword analysis, and synonym stuff, then I wrote a custom CombiningFilter (that I can probably contribute back at some point) to recombine the tokens at the end of the analysis chain. So let's say I have "The Children's Hospital of Los Angeles" as the original title value, then after this analysis chain for the field type used in title_sort, I'm left with childrenshospitallosangeles as a single token resultant from the chain. So, when I go to sort the titles in Solr, I use sort=title_sort asc, and I am getting all kinds of weird results when doing a query. However, when I go into the analysis.jsp page for Solr admin, the analysis for the field type, using that particular value comes out as expected, childrenshospitallosangeles so I am totally confused as to why title sort isn't working. I'm using solr 1.4.1 and lucene 2.9.3. Any help would be extremely appreciated. Thank you.
