Searching for words starting with swedish characters.

When I search in an index for a word that starts with an eight-bit
character I get:


Query: åsnan
Exception in thread "main" org.apache.lucene.queryParser.TokenMgrError: Lexical error at line 1, column 1.  Encountered: "\u00e5" (229), after : ""
        at org.apache.lucene.queryParser.QueryParserTokenManager.getNextToken(Unknown Source)
        at org.apache.lucene.queryParser.QueryParser.jj_ntk(Unknown Source)
        at org.apache.lucene.queryParser.QueryParser.Modifiers(Unknown Source)
        at org.apache.lucene.queryParser.QueryParser.Query(Unknown Source)
        at org.apache.lucene.queryParser.QueryParser.parse(Unknown Source)
        at org.apache.lucene.queryParser.QueryParser.parse(Unknown Source)
        at Lucsearch.main(Lucsearch.java:36)



(My class "Lucsearch", is a slightly modified version of the demo
class "SearchFiles.java".)

It works fine when the problematic character is later in the word.

Any ideas?

When I tried using the latest CVS-version of Lucene it worked
fine. Sorry to have bothered you.
