[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-11746) numeric fields need better error handling for prefix/wildcard syntax -- consider uniform support for "foo:* == foo:[* TO *]"

["Houston Putman (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-11746?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17049901#comment-17049901 ] 

Houston Putman commented on SOLR-11746:
---------------------------------------

I'm not sure why that'd be an issue, those links do work both on the released 8.4 ref guide, and on the master branch.

[https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/8_4/the-standard-query-parser.html#differences-between-lucenes-classic-query-parser-and-solrs-standard-query-parser]

[https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/blob/master/solr/solr-ref-guide/src/the-standard-query-parser.adoc#differences-between-lucenes-classic-query-parser-and-solrs-standard-query-parser]

I also tested {{ant build-site}}, which works for me off of master.

> On the solr-user mailing list, Torsten Krah pointed out that with Trie numeric fields, query syntax such as {{foo_d:\*}} has been functionality equivilent to {{foo_d:\[\* TO \*]}} and asked why this was not also supported for Point based numeric fields.
> The fact that this type of syntax works (for {{indexed="true"}} Trie fields) appears to have been an (untested, undocumented) fluke of Trie fields given that they use indexed terms for the (encoded) numeric terms and inherit the default implementation of {{FieldType.getPrefixQuery}} which produces a prefix query against the {{""}} (empty string) term.  
> (Note that this syntax has aparently _*never*_ worked for Trie fields with {{indexed="false" docValues="true"}} )
> In general, we should assess the behavior users attempt a prefix/wildcard syntax query against numeric fields, as currently the behavior is largely non-sensical:  prefix/wildcard syntax frequently match no docs w/o any sort of error, and the aformentioned {{numeric_field:*}} behaves inconsistently between points/trie fields and between indexed/docValued trie fields.
