Ferret talk - Dec 2006 - Range Query Term parsing bug in 0.10.6 win32 ?

Hi,

I think I''ve found a Range Query Term parsing bug ... the following
term
should return names >= ''A'', but instead generates a parsing
error

Term: name:[A>
Message: Nil bounds for range. A range must include either lower bound
or an upper bound

However, the slightly larger term, name:[AA> works just fine.

Any pointers please?

Kind Regards

Neville

Problem fixed, although I''m a bit nervous about this one. RangeQueries
used to have there terms tokenized. But I have decided to treat
RangeQueries like WildCardQueries. If wild_card_downcase is set to
true, then the terms of the RangeQuery will be downcased. Fingers
crossed, I hope this won''t cause any more problems.
