------------------------------------------------------------------

branches/CONNECTORS-1134 contains code which is complete but still needs testing.  The revised UI has been tested, though.  The way you specify an existing field in a field expression is with the following form:
{code}
${fieldname}
{code}

For example:
{code}
foo ${fieldname} bar
{code}
... would yield:
{code}
foo a bar
foo b bar
foo c bar
{code}
... for a multivalued field named "fieldname" with values "a", "b", and "c".

I will be adding test classes to this over the next week, as well as updating the documentation and adding UI hints about specifying fields.  But in the interim, you can give it a try and let me know what you find.

> Hi Team
> We want to add some extra meta fields to the indexed data with value created by joining the value of two or more existing meta fields or by manipulating the value of existing meta field.
> ie if we have field1 & field2 already in the repository data.
> We want to add field3 with value "some contant string"+ value of field1 + value of field2
> Regards
> Hemant
