Question

I’m using Lucene.NET, when I try to index for example the following text: “In de categorie T zijn tijdelijke borden (zwarte tekst/symbolen op gele achtergrond) opgenomen die niet in permanente uitvoering beschikbaar zijn.”

It is going about the text in bold, all thing are indexed quite wel, but one the T will be ignored.

Does someone knows this problem/issue. I’m using the following syntax.

doc.Add(new Field("text", text, Field.Store.NO, Field.Index.TOKENIZED));

“T” is a stop word by default in standard analyzer. You can provide your own stop-word list when creating an analyzer.

Just create an analyzer like this:

StandardAnalyzer standardAnalyzer = new StandardAnalyzer(new string[]{"an", "a", /*other stopwords*/});

And use it during indexation and search.
