Disclaimer: I've only been working (evaluating) Solr for three weeks. I had exactly this issue, and I found that using a field of type string gave exact matches. So, if you need to do both substring and exact match queries, you'll need two fields. One non-tokenized field using class StrField and one tokenized field using class TextField. Very easy to feed into both using copyField.
Your query would need to use the different field name instead of an exact operator like with some commercial search engines. hope that helps, Andy Jörg Kiegeland wrote: > > Normally I do substring-queries on my field named X.
