    Examine, Lucene, escaping chars and wildchar issue

    Got a small issue I’m trying to solve here, got a search running with examine and trying to search for words that contain a - (so that needs to be escaped) if I combine that with a wildcard char I get no results, anyone who can explain that? So this works (returns results for the word fit-o-meter)

    contents:fit\-o\-meter

    but this doesn’t return any results

    contents:fit\-o\-mete*

    Well contents:fit-o-mete* is part of my generated criteria, and I'm just using the dashboard examine control to execute a raw lucene query against the index...

    Tim,

    Ignore that last comment. In luke find a document that acutally has that term then look at the contents field in luke what do you see?

    I think it may be something todo with analyser not tokenising due to the - so for first query its exact match but for second query its going to try partial match on tokens but those individual tokens do not exist.

    Regards

    Ismail
