Enum of feature flags.
FLAG_BOOLEAN | Support AND, OR, etc and bracketed subexpressions. |
FLAG_PHRASE | Support quoted phrases. |
FLAG_LOVEHATE | Support + and -. |
FLAG_BOOLEAN_ANY_CASE | Support AND, OR, etc even if they aren't in ALLCAPS. |
FLAG_WILDCARD |
Support right truncation (e.g.
Xap*). NB: You need to tell the QueryParser object which database to expand wildcards from by calling set_database. |
FLAG_PURE_NOT |
Allow queries such as 'NOT apples'.
These require the use of a list of all documents in the database which is potentially expensive, so this feature isn't enabled by default. |
FLAG_PARTIAL |
Enable partial matching.
Partial matching causes the parser to treat the query as a "partially entered" search. This will automatically treat the final word as a wildcarded match, unless it is followed by whitespace, to produce more stable results from interactive searches. NB: You need to tell the QueryParser object which database to expand wildcards from by calling set_database. |
FLAG_SPELLING_CORRECTION |
Enable spelling correction.
For each word in the query which doesn't exist as a term in the database, Database::get_spelling_suggestion() will be called and if a suggestion is returned, a corrected version of the query string will be built up which can be read using QueryParser::get_corrected_query_string(). The query returned is based on the uncorrected query string however - if you want a parsed query based on the corrected query string, you must call QueryParser::parse_query() again. NB: You must also call set_database() for this to work. |
FLAG_SYNONYM |
Enable synonym operator '~'.
NB: You must also call set_database() for this to work. |
FLAG_AUTO_SYNONYMS |
Enable automatic use of synonyms for single terms.
NB: You must also call set_database() for this to work. |
FLAG_AUTO_MULTIWORD_SYNONYMS |
Enable automatic use of synonyms for single terms and groups of terms.
NB: You must also call set_database() for this to work. |

void QueryParser::set_stemmer | ( | const Xapian::Stem & | stemmer | ) |
Set the stemmer.
This sets the stemming algorithm which will be used by the query parser. Note that the stemming algorithm will only be used according to the stemming strategy set by set_stemming_strategy(), which defaults to STEM_NONE. Therefore, to use a stemming algorithm, you will also need to call set_stemming_strategy() with a value other than STEM_NONE.

void QueryParser::set_stemming_strategy | ( | stem_strategy | strategy | ) |
Set the stemming strategy.
This controls how the query parser will apply the stemming algorithm. The default value is STEM_NONE. The possible values are:
Note that the stemming algorithm is only applied to words in probabilistic fields - boolean filter terms are never stemmed.

void Xapian::QueryParser::add_prefix | ( | const std::string & | field, | |
const std::string & | prefix | |||
) |
Add a probabilistic term prefix.
For example:
qp.add_prefix("author", "A");
This allows the user to search for author:Orwell which will be converted to a search for the term "Aorwell".
Multiple fields can be mapped to the same prefix. For example, you can make title: and subject: aliases for each other.
As of 1.0.4, you can call this method multiple times with the same value of field to allow a single field to be mapped to multiple prefixes. Multiple terms being generated for such a field, and combined with Xapian::Query::OP_OR
.
If any prefixes are specified for the empty field name (i.e. you call this method with an empty string as the first parameter) these prefixes will be used as the default prefix. If you do this and also specify the default_prefix
parameter to parse_query()
, then the default_prefix
parameter will override.
If you call add_prefix()
and add_boolean_prefix()
for the same value of field, a Xapian::InvalidOperationError
exception will be thrown.
In 1.0.3 and earlier, subsequent calls to this method with the same value of field had no effect.

prefix | The term prefix to map this to |

void Xapian::QueryParser::add_boolean_prefix | ( | const std::string & | field, | |
const std::string & | prefix | |||
) |
Add a boolean term prefix allowing the user to restrict a search with a boolean filter specified in the free text query.
For example:
qp.add_boolean_prefix("site", "H");
This allows the user to restrict a search with site:xapian.org which will be converted to Hxapian.org combined with any probabilistic query with Xapian::Query::OP_FILTER
.
If multiple boolean filters are specified in a query for the same prefix, they will be combined with the Xapian::Query::OP_OR
operator. Then, if there are boolean filters for different prefixes, they will be combined with the Xapian::Query::OP_AND
operator.
Multiple fields can be mapped to the same prefix (so for example you can make site: and domain: aliases for each other). Instances of fields with different aliases but the same prefix will still be combined with the OR operator.
For example, if "site" and "domain" map to "H", but author maps to "A", a search for "site:foo domain:bar author:Fred" will map to "(Hfoo OR Hbar) AND Afred".
As of 1.0.4, you can call this method multiple times with the same value of field to allow a single field to be mapped to multiple prefixes. Multiple terms being generated for such a field, and combined with Xapian::Query::OP_OR
.
Calling this method with an empty string for field will cause a Xapian::InvalidArgumentError
.
If you call add_prefix()
and add_boolean_prefix()
for the same value of field, a Xapian::InvalidOperationError
exception will be thrown.
In 1.0.3 and earlier, subsequent calls to this method with the same value of field had no effect.
