DateQuery with comparison operators

["Umashanker, Srividhya" <sr...@hp.com>]

HI -

I are using Lucene 4.5  and want to support date comparisons  with < > <= >= !=.
Right now, we parse the string and create RangeQuery. Is there an inbuilt way to do date based comparisons ie., "dob <= 2013-10-23T14:47:54.776Z"

Sorry, but the Lucene and Solr query parsers do not have support for the 
relational operators (although the LucidWorks Search query parser does, but 
that's for Solr). You simply need to use range queries:

x < v   -> x:[* TO v}
x <= v   -> x:[* TO v]
x > v -> x:{v TO *]
x >= v -> x:[v TO *]

Note the use of curly braces for exclusive end points.
