[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-4646) lowercaseOperators is enabled by default for edismax query parser

["Jan Høydahl (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4646?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13620375#comment-13620375 ] 

Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-4646:
-----------------------------------

Wait a minute - I'd argue that the default here should be false and we should change the code?

An example is that in Norwegian language, the word "and" means "duck", the word "or" means "alder" and "not" means "seine". The same may be true for many other languages, and requiring uppercase operators by default makes perfect sense.

> [Documentation|http://wiki.apache.org/solr/ExtendedDisMax#lowercaseOperators] says:
> *lowercaseOperators*
> This param controls whether to try to interpret lowercase words as boolean operators such as "and", "not" and "or". Set {{&lowercaseOperators=true}} to allow this. Default is {{"*false*"}}.
> But in fact {{lowercaseOperators=true}} by default.
> And if one of boolean operators in lowercase is present in query it turns off {{mm}} parameter:
> * {{q=Young+6+or+Ariston&defType=edismax&qf=name&mm=100%25&debugQuery=true}}
>   {{"parsedquery_toString": "+((name:young) (name:6) (name:ariston))"}}
> * {{q=Young+6+or+Ariston&defType=edismax&qf=name&mm=100%25&lowercaseOperators=true&debugQuery=true}}
>   {{"parsedquery_toString": "+(((name:young) (name:6) (name:ariston))~3)"}}
