Riak Search 0.14.0 Release Notes
--------------------------------

The majority of effort during development of Riak Search 0.14 went
toward rewriting the query parsing and planning system. This fixes all
known query planning bugs. We also managed to add quite a few new
features and performance improvements. See the highlights below for
details.

Important Configuration and Interface Changes:

- The system now uses the 'whitespace_analyzer_factory' by
  default. (It previously used the 'default_analyzer_factory', which
  has been renamed to 'standard_analyzer_factory'.)

- Indexing and searching will fail with an error message if the
  analyzer_factory configuration setting is not set at either a schema
  or field level.

- The method signature for custom Erlang and Javascript extractors has
  changed.

Highlights:

- Fixed the query parser to properly respect field-level analyzer
  settings.

- Fixed the query parser to correctly handle escaped special
  characters and terms within single-quotes and double-quotes.

- Fixed the query parser's interpretation of inclusive and exclusive
  ranges, allowing an inclusive range on one side, and an exclusive
  range on the other (mimicking Lucene).

- Fixed the execution engine to significantly speed up proximity
  searches and phrase searches. (678)

- By default new installations use all Erlang-based extractors, and
  the JVM is not started. Setting the analysis_port in etc/app.config
  will cause the JVM to start and allow the use of Java Lucene-based
  analyzers.

- System now aborts queries that would queue up too many documents in
  a result set. This is controlled by a 'max_search_results' setting
  in riak_search. Note that this only affects the Solr
  interface. Searches through the Riak Client API that feed into a
  Map/Reduce job are still allowed to execute because the system
  streams those results.

- Change handoff of Search data stored in merge_index to be more
  memory efficient.

- Added "*_date", "*_int", "*_text", and "*_txt" dynamic fields to the
  default schema.
