Hi Anusham I could understand that the Analyzer stems the word to base word and stores in DB. Users may not know this internals and they tend to give "attenti*".
My question is queryparser should stem the word and then apply /expand the wild card query. Is this a bug with queryparser? OR Analyzer will not stem the word if it finds a wild card operator in it?
