Query text is always "tokenized" (more properly, "parsed"), unless the text
is enclosed in quotes or spaces are escaped with backslash. Try:
q=valueadd:"test . test2"
or
q=valueadd:test\ .\ test2
Parentheses simply provide grouping, either to control boolean operator
evaluation order or to apply a field name to a sequence of query tokens (as
you have written.)
The analyzer or field type is only consulted when the query is generated,
not while it is being parsed. The same identical parsing rules apply to both
tokenized and non-tokenized fields. What a field type's analyzer does with
its value is irrelevant to query parsing.

Subject: Search in String and Text_en fields simultaneously with edismax
I have a field "valueadd" of type String and field "body" of type text_en
(with tokenization and linguistic processing).
When I search with edismax against field valueadd like this:
q=valueadd:(test . test2)
I see that the parsed query is
(valueadd:test valueadd:. valueadd:test2)~3
Why not (valueadd:test . test2) ? It looks like the query is tokenized while
field type String doesn't have a tokenizer configured.
I know I could construct my query as:
q=valueadd:"test . test2"
in which case the phrase is searched as a whole against valueadd. But why
doesn't that happen without quotes?
The reason I ask:
For a simultaneous search in multiple fields I like to include field
valueadd in the qf parameter which contains String and text_en fields, like:
&qf=valueadd body
How can I search both fields simultaneously without duplicating search
terms, while the query is (whitespace) tokenized for "body" but search as a
phrase for "valueadd"?
Thanks,
Tom Burgmans
