Hello.

The data:
I have a dataset containing ~500.000 documents.
In each document there is an email, a name and an user ID.

The problem:
I would like to be able to search in it, but it should be like the "MySQL
LIKE".

So when a user enters the search term: "carsten", then the query looks like:
        "name:(carsten) OR name:(carsten*) OR email:(carsten) OR
email:(carsten*) OR userid:(carsten) OR userid:(carsten*)"

Then it should match:
carsten l
carsten larsen
Carsten Larsen
Carsten
CARSTEN
etc.

And when the user enters the term: "carsten l" the query looks like:
        "name:(carsten l) OR name:(carsten l*) OR email:(carsten l) OR
email:(carsten l*) OR userid:(carsten l) OR userid:(carsten l*)"

Then it should match:
carsten l
carsten larsen
Carsten Larsen

Or written to the MySQL syntax: "... WHERE `name` LIKE 'carsten%'  OR
`email` LIKE 'carsten%' OR `userid` LIKE 'carsten%'..."

I know that I need to use the "solr.LowerCaseTokenizerFactory" on my name
and email field, to ensure case insentitive behavior.
The problem seems to be the wildcards and the whitespaces.
