Max Keil	Tuesday 07 July 2009 4:07:56 pm Hi Carlos, first issue: I tried to execute the search on our eZ Find index. I can confirm that "o*" in your filter returns the objects with the second word starting with "o", but only if this attribute were indexed as "text" in your ezfind.ini. It's the normal case for text-lines. - You can bypass this by changing text-lines into "string" types, but another problem appears: after this you cannot search for parts of the string. - You can also create your own ezfSolrDocumentFieldBase class which would handles the indexing of text-lines - here you would store the name in two different ways: -- first: as a string -- second as a text so both versions would be indexed in solr and you have to decide which of the types you take. second issue: solr is sorting in "natural order", so the extended ascii chars are located at the end. I found an interessting article about a similar problem: http://wiki.epc.ub.uu.se/display/~ronnie/International+Sorting Mit freundlichen Grüßen Best regards Max Keil ____________________________________________________________ eZ Publish Gold Partner - http://www.all2e.com http://ez.no/partners/worldwide_partners/all2e_gmbh
Carlos Revillo	Wednesday 08 July 2009 1:37:09 am Hi Max. Your reply has helped me a lot. I only need this condition (look in the entire field) for a few specific attributes. At first, those attributes was defined as ezstring. So, what i've done is to build a custom datatype (just a copy of de default ezstring with some changes in the names) and map this datatype to string in my ezfind.ini.append.php. Something like [SolrFieldMapSettings] DatatypeMap[ezcustomtext]=string Then, I just added new attributes of this type to the classes, and with a cli script, i copied the values from the old attributes to the new ones and finally deleted the old ones. After running indexing script all is working as i want for those fields, so thank you very much! For the second issue i will look at your recomendations. Thanks again.

so both versions would be indexed in solr and you have to decide which of the types you take.

Hi Max.

Your reply has helped me a lot. I only need this condition (look in the entire field) for a few specific attributes. At first, those attributes was defined as ezstring.

So, what i've done is to build a custom datatype (just a copy of de default ezstring with some changes in the names) and map this datatype to string in my ezfind.ini.append.php.
Something like

[SolrFieldMapSettings]
DatatypeMap[ezcustomtext]=string

Then, I just added new attributes of this type to the classes, and with a cli script, i copied the values from the old attributes to the new ones and finally deleted the old ones. After running indexing script all is working as i want for those fields, so thank you very much!

For the second issue i will look at your recomendations. Thanks again.
