Re: search ignoring accents

Hi Pedro,

solr.ASCIIFoldingFilterFactory is one way to remove diacritics.
Confusion comes from EdgeNGram, why do you need it?

Hello,
 
What is the best way to search in a field ignoring accents?
 
The field has the type:
                <fieldType name="text_general_edge_ngram" 
class="solr.TextField" positionIncrementGap="100">
                               <analyzer type="index">
                                               <tokenizer 
class="solr.LowerCaseTokenizerFactory"/>
                                               <filter 
class="solr.EdgeNGramFilterFactory" minGramSize="2" maxGramSize="15"/>
                               </analyzer>
                               <analyzer type="query">
                                               <tokenizer 
class="solr.LowerCaseTokenizerFactory"/>
                                               <filter 
class="solr.EdgeNGramFilterFactory" minGramSize="2" maxGramSize="15"/>
                               </analyzer>
                </fieldType>
 
I’ve tried adding the filter:  <filter class="solr.ASCIIFoldingFilterFactory"/> 
but some strange results happened.. like:
 
Search by “Mourao” and the results were:
Mourão -> OK
Monteiro -> NOTOK
Morais -> NOTOK
 
Thanks in advanced,
