Combining queries using OR

[Pradeep Kumar K <pr...@robosoftin.com>]

Hi All

   How to combine more  queries using 'OR' operator. For example

Two queries are

  Query quer1=QueryParser.parse(String query1,String field1,analyzer)
  Query quer2=QueryParser.parse(String query2,String field2,analyzer)

How can I combine these two queries using 'OR' operator i.e. ultimately 
query should be one like

quer1 OR quer2


Regards
Pradeep

Take a look at BooleanQuery.  You want to add quer1 and quer2 to a
BooleanQuery such that each is neither prohibited nor required (this will
make more sense once you see the interface).
