[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-7404) prepared query for introducing evaluation expression in query (not fixed second comparation member)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7404?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15409624#comment-15409624 ] 

Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-7404:
--------------------------------------------

Can't you use the expressions module with function queries to get close to this?

> Lucene is very powerfull but has a limitation very important. It is impossible to use when you want create a query where is a expression inside. 
> field1: >= field2  where field1 and field2 is not possible.
> field1:= field2^2 -4 *field3 
> it is pratically impossible to index statically document for this query but it is possible to do 2 things:
> 1) create a third field hidden here is saved the result.
> 2) when you use a prepared query , it is saved automatically in a different writer this info that you can save. 
> Creating a prepared query lucene do all automatically for making this query using indexes. 
> PS. Pay attention that fields in expression could be not only inside the current document but also in different documents/readers.
> It could be used also for join different document types(it is a subcase of the above problem).
