Glad it helped. About multiple hits, I assume you're storing values in specific_field as UN_TOKENIZED then? or it's some unique ID? The hidden thing here is that if your analyzer may break up your token stream for you. It depends upon the stream and the analyzer you use. For instance, an e-mail address (or file path or...) would be tokenized as multiple tokens (or not), depending upon the analyzer. WhitespaceAnalyzer is probably the most intuitive from this perspective, but UN_TOKENIZED overrides the analyzer and doesn't break up the input stream at index time at least.
apologies if this is old hat to you,, And if it's not, I'll recommend Luke for examining the effects of various analyzers on input streams when putting them in your index (google lucene and luke).... Best Erick On 11/12/06, tony yin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
What a valuable answer. thanks. don't worry about multiple hits. I would never store multiple values in specific_field. On 11/13/06, Erick Erickson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: ... -- Kindly Regards Tony ===============================
