Andreas Sewe created MINDEXER-108: ------------------------------------- Summary: Lift restriction on leading wildcard queries Key: MINDEXER-108 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MINDEXER-108 Project: Maven Indexer Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 6.0 Reporter: Andreas Sewe
The {{DefaultQueryCreator}} prevents queries with leading wildcard: {noformat} if ( query.startsWith( "*" ) || query.startsWith( "?" ) ) { throw new ParseException( "Query cannot start with '*' or '?'!" ); } {noformat} While this was necessary in older versions of Lucene, the version used now happily executes such queries. The restriction can thus be lifted. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
