Your answer is quite clear, but my question is a bit more specific:
as you seen from my snippet ( I copy it here again), I'm already using
BooleanQuery and QueryParser.parse method.
booleanQuery.add(new QueryParser(org.apache.lucene.util.Version.LUCENE_40,
"tags", new
WhitespaceAnalyzer(org.apache.lucene.util.Version.LUCENE_40)).parse(phrase[i]);
, BooleanClause.Occur.SHOULD);
I'm however wondering if this is correct way to pass single terms to
booleanQuery.
QueryParser.parse method returns a SrndQuery object, which I directly
passing to booleanQuery.add.
Not sure if this is correct. Should I extract single terms instead from
SrndQuery... or something like that, and invoke booleanQuery.add several
times ?
thanks
