Hi Axel, I've read the syntax, which is why I was surprised. There are wildcard options in the syntax, e.g.: test* and test? and even te*st. So I would expect that [director*] should return director and directory. [director], if I understand the syntax correctly, should return just director. But actually, it also returns director and directory in my code. This means that [director] is equivalent to [director*], which I find a bit strange.
In your example - the query ["director"] also returns both director and directory. The only thing that works is [+director]. Thing is, I don't want to force my users to remember advanced syntax and append a + to each word. And I also don't want to start parsing queries. I imagine that the syntax in the Lucene documentation should work (i.e., [director] *should not* be equivalent to [director*]. It's either a bug somewhere, or I'm not configuring/using something correctly. Anyone has an idea?
