Hi Martin,
great that you like Hibernate Search and want to make it even easier to use.

I am currently working on a new way to query in Hibernate Search.
It's not finished, but
it already works.
I had a quick look at the code, but for the sake of discussion, it would be great if you
could outline
your approach in an email. Maybe with some example code? It would make it much easier for
everyone
interested to see what you want to achieve.
Let me try to sum your approach up from what I read in the readme and glancing at the
code. Please
correct me from where I am wrong.
Your approach is bean driven, where the bean defines the query parameters you have for a
given query.
You also created a set of annotations which allow you to specify the query via annotations
on the bean.
When you create a Searcher you pass it the bean and the parameter values. From there is
query is build
and executed for you. Is this correct? How would you provide multiple parameters and how
do you select
a given query in a bean (it seems you envision the possibility to provide more than one).
Is this correct?
I am planning on extending the functionality a lot in the future
What are your plans? Can you maybe share your vision for this extension? How would you
envision to
integrate it with Search? Do you need to modify core functionality or could this be an
optional “search” module?
