Thank you
... I misread the docs, now phrase searches works fine, but now I found
in the docs
>>>STEM_SOME: Search for stemmed forms of terms except for those which
start with a capital letter, or are followed by certain characters
(currently: (/@<>=*[{" ), or are used with operators which need
positional information. Stemmed terms are prefixed with 'Z'.<<<
So, if I have terms with capital letters (as in german, ...) they won't
get stemmed, what it is in fact not my desired behaviour ....
If i lowercase all words I get matches for stemmed terms, but I won't
get a match on a phrase search (when capitalized terms occur).
Is that an issue I have to handle myself, or is there on other
opportunity in Xapian.
Thanks,
Deniz
