Eric, Thanks a lot for your reply.
I was able to successfully hack the query parser and enabled the leading wild card search. As of today I hacked the code for this reason only, I am not sure how to make the leading wild card search to work without hacking the code and this type of search is the preferred type of search in our organization. I had previously searched all over the web to find out 'why' that feature was disabled as default but couldn't find any solid answer stating the reason. In one of the posting in nabble it was mentioned that it might take a performance hit if we enable the leading wild card search, can you please let me know your comments on that? But I am very much interested in contributing some new stuff to SOLR group so I consider this as a starting point..
