Is there an enhancment/plugin to Lucene which would allow queries like myNumericalField > 100
I know that usually one has to index such fields as text with the property a > b => lex(text(a)) > lex(text(b)) and devise the text(n) transformation appropriately. What I'm looking for is an enhancement which would eliminate the a -> text(a) transformation or simplify it. Is it necessary f.ex. to implement the above query as a range query 100 <= myNumericalField <= 999999999999999999999999..... Since many people use numeric field, I guess there exists some enhancement allready that simplifz the treatment of numerical fields.
