Also consider that I expect Solr to support the XMLQueryParser at some point in the near future
I had always planned on supporting an XML query format, but I never got a chance to review the XMLQueryParser now in Lucene to see if I like it. Do you? In the back of my mind, I've been thinking about *how* to support multiple query syntaxes. trying to add new parameters everywhere specifying the type doesn't seem like a great idea (way too many places). It would be nice if the type of the query syntax could be expressed in the query string itself... no necessity for any new params (although it wouldn't preclude them). Something like the way xml does it perhaps? <?xml...> <BooleanQuery>... <?surround>the actuall surround syntax <?qp>foo:bar -baz:taz foo:bar #default is lucene query syntax -Yonik
