[jira] Updated: (LUCENE-489) Allow QP subclasses to support
Wildcard Queries with leading "*"
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-489?page=all ]
Hoss Man updated LUCENE-489:
----------------------------
Summary: Allow QP subclasses to support Wildcard Queries with leading "*" (was: Wildcard Queries with leading "*")
Description:
It would be usefull for some users if the logic that prevents QueryParser from creating WIldcardQueries with leading wildcard characters ("?" or "*") be moved from the grammer into the base implimentation of getWildcardQuery so that it may be overridden in subclasses without needing to modifiy the grammer directly.
was:
It would be nice to have wildcard queries with a leading wildcard ("?" or "*").
I'm aware that this is a well-known issue, and I do understand the reasons behind it,
but try explaining that to our end-users ... :-(
I think the revent comments in this feature request make a legitimate argument about the extensability of wildcard support in the QueryParser -- I see no reason not to reopen this request given a slight change in title and description.
This doens't mean I know of any active work to impliment this change (patches are always welcome) just that I think it's a worthwhile request to leave open.
