Search using BooleanQuery with wildcards or phrases

[Ingemar Strandberg <in...@home.se>]

Hello,

 

I am trying to use a nested BooleanQuery using the query "+text:jennifer
lopez" and I get no hits. If I use a simple Query it works fine and I get
the results I want.

 

I am using Lucene.Net 2.0.004 and I have looked in the tests. I have not
found any tests on phrases or wildcards using BooleanQuery. Does anybody
know if this is a known issue. Does anybody have a solution or a hint what I
could do to solve this problem.

 

I would be very pleased if someone had a solution for this.

 

Thanks!

 

Here is the code if somebody is interested:

 

IndexReader reader = IndexReader.Open("c:\temp\myIndex");

IndexSearcher searcher = new IndexSearcher(reader);

Analyzer analyzer = new StandardAnalyzer();

QueryParser parser = new QueryParser("text", analyzer);

BooleanQuery q1 = new BooleanQuery();

 

q1.Add(new TermQuery(new Term("text", "The text I want to search for")),
BooleanClause.Occur.MUST);

 

if (m_CatList.Count > 0) // It doesn't matter whether it enters this area or
not

{

BooleanQuery q2 = new BooleanQuery();

 

for (int i = 0; i < m_CatList.Count; i++)

{

q2.Add(new TermQuery(new Term("category", m_CatList[i].ToString())),
BooleanClause.Occur.SHOULD);

}

 

q1.Add(q2, BooleanClause.Occur.MUST);

}

 

m_Hits = searcher.Search(q1, s);
