Hi Thomas

Lucene does not support that directly - but there is a work around. See the manual: http://doc.dynamicweb.com/documentation-9/platform/indexing-search/indexing-search#2468

Thanks, Nice hack :-)

Is there also a way to check if a field of type string[] is "empty" . Meaning that the array do not contains any values?

Should be the same thing. Difference is that if the field is of type array, the check is made multiple times - one for each value.

I have tried that, but when saving the query i get an error

 

Hm - I can make that save.... Which version are you in?

8.8.0.3

I need to do this again on a DW 8.9 and the link (http://doc.dynamicweb.com/documentation-9/platform/indexing-search/indexing-search#2468) don't work anymore.
Can anyone help with the Is null or empty hack on an normal string?

 

Hi Thomas

You can find the 9 version here: http://doc.dynamicweb.com/documentation-9/platform/indexing-search/queries#4792

Should be the same on 8.
