I'm not extremely familiar with Lucene, so I am confused at why the following behavior is happening: When I build up a BooleanQuery using the Lucene objects (combination of RangeQueries, TermQuery, etc.) I am getting a different result than when I do a QueryParser.parse(queryString). The BooleanQuery that I build up produces the following output:
String queryString = baseQuery.toString(); Output: +date_received:[20030301 TO 20090913] +type:O24337 +(site_domains_reversed:moc.rettiwt site_domains_reversed:moc.rettiwt.*) Hits results = indexSearcher.search(baseQuery); Output: results.length = 0 ------------- However, if I do the following, I get results: QueryParser stringParser = new QueryParser(LUCENE_SEARCH_FIELD, PuntEmailIndexHelper.getAnalyzer()); Query parsedQuery = stringParser.parse(baseQuery.toString()); Hits results = indexSearcher.search(parsedQuery); Output: results.length = 3 My question is, why are the results different?? The query in both cases is the same, the only difference is that one was "built-up" while the other one was "parsed" based upon the .toString() method of the built-up query... Hopefully, this is making sense and someone can explain why the results are different. Thanks for your help.
