James Dyer updated LUCENE-3322:
-------------------------------
Attachment: LUCENE-3322.patch
Here is an initial patch. Creating this was an adventure for me in learning
some of Lucene's internals!
In this approach, ConjunctionScorer verifies that all of the matches' positions
fall within the range of a user-supplied positionIncrementGap. Supported query
types are: TermQuery, TermRangeQuery, PrefixQuery, PhraseQuery, WidlcardQuery,
FuzzyQuery & BooleanQuery. A unit test is included demonstrating use with each
of these query types.
All unit tests pass. However, there are some glaring inefficiencies in this
initial impl attempt. Perhaps LUCENE-2878 will ultimately provide much of the
functionality otherwise implemented here (??). Also, should LUCENE-2308 be
implemented, there might be an opportunity to store a Field Type's
PositionIncrementGap in the index, further lessening the burden on the user to
correctly issue these types of queries.

> When searching against a multi-valued field it is often advantageous to
> disable cross-matches. For instance, if a book contains two authors: "john
> smith" and "brian jones", a search for "john jones" should not match.
> Currently the best workaround is to search using a sloppy phrase query. The
> drawback is that phrases are incompatible with other features such as
> wildcards and ranges. Additionally, it is left up to the user to know to
> formulate the query differently if searching a multi-valued field.
