Hi all,

(Cross posted to stackoverflow yesterday 
(http://stackoverflow.com/q/17154510/814206), no answers at SO yet, perhaps 
java-users@lucene is a better place for this question; I hope not to annoy any 
of you with these duplicate messages)

In Lucene (currently using version 4.1) using Lucene's flexible query parser , 
is it possible to build(…) proximity queries from ProximityQueryNode?

The code uses a flexible parser in order to parse (partial) queries read from a 
file into QueryNode; process these QueryNodes; and finally search using the 
built queries.

The three phases of the flexible parser:
* Parsing, does what I want it to do.
  The StandardSyntaxParser parses even complex queries with proximity operators 
(for example "(\"letter comes\"~3 \"agitated employees\"~4 \"worried about 
salaries\"~1) AND (\"letter comes agitated employees worried about 
salaries\"~8)" parses correctly (to a group containing SlopQueryNode; having 
slop queries is adequate).

* Processing, removes proximity and slop nodes from the tree; skipping 
processing might work and allows avoiding this problem.

* Building, replaces proximity and slop with BooleanQuery or ignores it and 
emits TermQuery even for unprocessed QueryNode trees that do contain 
ProximityQueryNodes.


What can I do, so that Lucene parses partial queries to QueryNode parse trees, 
expand the trees to search for other terms nearby, and submit the query to the 
searcher?


Config:

Lucene version 4.1, if needed I'll upgrade to 4.3.2
Parser ….flexible.standard.Standard, if needed I can switch parser but 
preferably one of the flexible ones.



With kind regards,
Kasper
