Question concerning Analyzers

Hi, me again

I'm still stuck with my search engine, but something popped in my head : Can an analyzer index something but ignore it during a search ? I'm asking this because now that I've been searching for an answer, I've come to think that I should redo the whole search engine, but I don't want to reproduce the same error as we have now. It would be stupid to accidentaly redo the same mistake. I still haven't received news from my seniors about me posting code and all...

There is no requirement that you use the same analyzer to search as  
you used to index.  So, yes, you could certainly index things and  
ignore them during a search.

Well, at the very worst, you can use a different analyzer at search time
than you do at index time. I can imagine you create your own analyzer by
subclassing, say, StandardAnalyzer and use your custom analyzer at search
time....

Otherwise, you can't have a stock analyzer do one thing when indexing and
another when searching because they don't have any state information that I
know about.
