Hi,

I've created an index with various bits of data for each document I've added, each document can differ in it field name.

Later on, when I come to search the index I need to query it with exact field/ values - for example:

FieldName1 = X AND FieldName2 = Y AND FieldName3 = Z

What's the best way of constructing the following using Lucene .NET:

  • What analyser is best to use for this exact match type?
  • Upon retrieving a match, I only need one specific field to be returned (which I add to each document) - should this be the only one stored?
  • Later on I'll need to support keyword searching (so a field can have a list of values and I'll need to do a partial match).

The fields and values come from a Dictionary<string, string>. It's not user input, it's constructed from code.

Thanks,
Kieron
