Hi,
I'm also having problems finding out how to do this. If I put the query
'date:20060501..20070503' through QueryParser I get
'D20060501..20070503' for a boolean prefix query, but I don't see how to
connect this with a particular value index, assuming I had the date
stored as a value.

So just a couple questions:

  Do range queries work for boolean terms or values?
  How do I make it work in C++?

I feel like I'm missing something obvious as this is such a major new
feature the docs must be somewhere, it should be simple, and I'm surely
just being dumb!

Cheers
Mark.
