Hello,

I am migrating from a pure Lucene application to using solr.  For legacy 
reasons I must support a somewhat obscure query feature: lowercase words in the 
query should match lowercase or uppercase in the index, while uppercase words 
in the query should only match uppercase words in the index.

To do this with Lucene we created a custom Analyzer and custom TokenFilter.  
During indexing, the custom TokenFilter duplicates uppercase tokens as 
lowercase ones and sets their offsets to make them appear in same position as 
the upper case token, i.e., you get two tokens for every uppercase token.  Then 
at query time a normal (case sensitive) analyzer is used so that lowercase 
tokens will match either upper or lower, while the uppercase will only match 
uppercase.

I have looked through the documentation and I see how to specify the Analyzer 
in the schema.xml file that is used for indexing, but I don't know how to 
specify that a different Analyzer (the case sensitive one) should be used for 
queries.

Is this possible?

Thanks,

James
