Thanks! Unfortunately it is not working. I use Solr 3.6.2.
This is how I have defined the field type:
<fieldType name="textgen2" class="solr.TextField"
positionIncrementGap="100">
<analyzer type="index">
<tokenizer class="solr.WhitespaceTokenizerFactory" />
<filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory" />
</analyzer>
<analyzer type="query">
<tokenizer class="solr.WhitespaceTokenizerFactory" />
<filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory" />
</analyzer>
</fieldType>
When I query for "*\?" I still get false positives, i.e. values that do not
end with a question mark.
Am I missing something very trivial?
Cheers
