Ferret talk - Sep 2007 - How to search with range when I am using AAF

acts_as_ferret :fields => {
    :name => {:},
    :desc => {},
    :start_date => {}
  }


  def start_date
    self.start_datetime.strftime("%Y%m%d")
  end


Now that I am strong start_date in YYYYMMDD format, I want to search for
all event in between 20070506 and 20070809

What will my query look like when I am using aaf. This one doesn''t work
  Event.find_id_by_contents("start_date:[20070506 20070809])

I know how it works with native Ferret but can''t seem to integrate with
aaf.

For what it''s worth, a similar query works for me:

Article.find_by_contents("published_on:[2007-06-04 2007-09-14]")

My published_on field is a DATE in the database, and I don''t convert
it at all.  I''m using Ferret 0.11.4 and the latest aaf from the svn
trunk.

Hope that helps,

Doug

Doug: You are right. For some mysterious reason I wasn''t getting the 
result. It''s all good now.

Thanks.
