Dear fellow Java developers: I am reading up on PhraseQuery to search for an exact match for terms that appear exactly in a particular order for a field (i.e. slop value of 0). However, I came across SpanNearQuery which appears to work in a similar fashion, but am confused, due to it's variations. Can SpanNearQuery, or SpanQuery also be used to find an exact match for a phrase provided by the user? What are the differences between SpanNearQuery(and SpanQuery for that matter), and PhraseQuery, and when should I use each Query?
Thanks in advance to all who reply.
