[Hibernate Search]How to restrict search to one table?

I have two entity classes(simplified) as follows:

Code:

@Entity
@Table(name="categories")
public class Categories{
@DocumentId
String id;
@Field(index=TOKENIZED, store=store.YES)
String name;
.....
}

@Entity
@Table(name="subcategories")
public class Subcategories{
@DocumentId
String id;
@Field(index=TOKENIZED, store=store.YES)
String name;
}

How do I restrict search to name which exists only in Categories or Subcategories?

I am building MultiFieldQueryParser and if I pass just "name" it returns matching objects from both Categories and SubCategories. I have tried categories.name, Categories.name to restrict the search only within Categories, but it does not return anything for the same search string.

Am I doing anything wrong? I appreciate any help.

Thanks.[/code]

do ftSession.createFullTextQuery(luceneQuery, Subcategory.class);
to restrict the search to Subcategories only
