[CLucene-dev] Parsing queries ?

[norbert b. <nor...@di...>]

Hello,

I would like to know if there is a way (in CLucene2.3.3.4) to build a 
Query* object from a complete Lucene query string, taking into account 
all of its operators (AND, OR, NOT, +, -, :, (), etc.). Until now, I've 
been able to use the QueryParser to build fairly simple queries, like 
this for example :

/*******/
BooleanQuery* lBoolQuery = new BooleanQuery();
Query* lQuery1 = QueryParser::parse( _T( "sampleValue1" ), _T( 
"sampleField1" ), lAnalyzer );
Query* lQuery2 = QueryParser::parse( _T( "sampleValue2" ), _T( 
"sampleField2" ), lAnalyzer );

lBoolQuery ->add( lQuery1, true, BooleanClause::MUST );
lBoolQuery->add( lQuery2, true, BooleanClause::MUST );
/*******/

This works ok. But if I've got a complex Lucene string query, like : 
"title:(test -stuff) AND text:"hello wor*") OR "something nice"^4 ... 
How can I use this to get a Query* object representing this request ? 
I'm assuming there is a method to do that, I just can't find it. And I 
don't want to write a parser myself !

Thanks in advance,
