Most tokenizers would treat "?" as punctuation - to be ignored. The white
space tokenizer will preserve all punctuation.
Or, use a raw string field ("string"/StrField).
In either case, you would need to escape the "?" in the query parser (with a
backslash) since it is a wildcard character.
Yes, string_field:*\? should match any string field that ends with a "?".

Subject: Search for string ending with question mark
Hi all,
Currently, I am experimenting with the tokenizers.
Assume, I have the values: "2013?", "1900?", "87?".
I want to retrieve all values that end with the question mark as literal.
How do I need to define the <fieldType> in the schema.xml to allow for such
a query?
I assume it would be like: *\?
Is this possible in Lucene/Solr?
Cheers
