Hi

Guys

Apologies.......

  Can some body tell me ,What I have been doing wrong on the Lucene
basics.........  : > (  [6 months 15 days]

 Using Lucene 1.4.1 O/s Win/Linux Ram 1GB
 I used a modified version of StandardAnalyzer.java  [ called it
GrammerAnalyzer.java ] and added  Symbols  '$,@,#,&'

 to the same,  Also when added this Analyzer to AnalysisDemo.java avaliable
from web site
http://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2003/07/30/LuceneIntro.html?page=last#thre
ad

1) On search of '$100.50' the AnalysisDemo returned for the analyzer  used
as  '[100.00]'
2)So I Used the same Analyzer for Indexing Purpose / Searching Purpose.
3)On Hacking the Luke's src [added the same GrammerAnalyzer] file
  avaliable from  http://www.getopt.org/luke/

 When I looked at the File containing for the same values , I was surpriced
to find '$100.50' instead of  100.50
Please Somebody Advise me..........

Thx in advance
      WITH WARM REGARDS
      HAVE A NICE DAY

I'm glad someone is making use of this :)

Seems fine.

A wise thing to do, generally speaking.

I presume you are looking at the value of the field, not the terms  
indexed.  Stored fields keep their original value in the index, but  
also index the term(s) that come from the analysis process (or as-is in  
the case of Field.Keyword).
