Querying an exact string match ?
Hi,

I have a field which I need to match exactly -- Ideally it shouldn't
even be tokenized, but I can't find a way to do that -- adding a
field that is indexed but not tokenized, doesn't seem to work -- or
at least a Term Query doesn't work.

eg the field is "x y z" -- and I do a phrase query "x y" it should
not match -- just "x y z" should match.

Cheers,
Winton

This should work. You should be able to find an un-tokenized field
containing spaces with a TermQuery. Nothing should ever tokenize the
string.

Can you please supply a simple, self-contained example showing that this
does not work?

Thanks,

Doug
