this filter implements that interface solely to support rangequeries in collation order (in addition to sort), so that it has all the lucene functionality. wildcards and even prefix queries simply wont work, because these are binary keys intended just for this purpose. if you want to do textish queries like this, you need to use a text field. -- lucidimagination.com
