Aren't there standards around this already?
If you're talking about API methods here then I believe that HS deals
with any type of Lucene query.
The issue with doing something like: -
CacheQuery cq = new QueryFactory(cache).getQuery(luceneQuery);
is that to create a lucene query then you need to do the work of
creating up a QueryParser and stuff like that. This is the bit that
I'd like to avoid.
Is it too round-about / tricky / yucky if we the user is to provide
the specific class of the query? Or is that what you were suggesting
anyway Manik?
e.g.: -
CacheQuery cq = new
QueryFactory
(cache).getQuery(org.apache.lucene.query.BooleanQuery.class);
If I'm completely off topic and talking rubbish then just ignore :).
