Hi all, I am new to the forum and also new to Hibernate Search. I am developing an application using Seam and wanted to integrate Hibernate Search into it.

I checked out the seam-dvd example that came with the seam package, one thing I noticed about the search function (it uses Hibernate Search) is that you have to match the whole string in order to get an result, I will give an example:

You have to search for "bourne" or "identity" in order to get "The Bourne Identity" in your result, is there anyway I can configure Hibernate Search so that "The Bourne Identity" can match with "bour", "bou", "iden" or similar search strings?

I think I have some clues now, do I have to write my own QueryParser or Analyzer or both for this?

Emmanuel, am I on the right track, do you have any suggestions?

You need to read some basic Lucene documentation, querying in Hibernate Search is the same API.

ahh the Lucene documentation.. I got it now, thanks!
