Combining phrases with || (or-ing) doesn't work in search

[Lebbeous Fogle-Weekley]

In master, at least, searches like the following do not do what you'd expect.

"conan doyle" || "agatha christie"

Internally, Query Parser seems to generate a query plan that only has &'s, not |'s.

Mike Rylander is already looking at this.

Confirmed that this a problem with our 2.0 system as well.

FWIW, the query:

keyword:arthur conan doyle || keyword:agatha christie

works. To emphasize what Lebbeous said, phrase searches i.e. "Contains
exactly", seems to introduce the problem.

[Mike Rylander (mrylander)]

The semantics we want amount to:

  ("conan doyle") || ("agatha christie")

This is embodied in the branch at: http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Evergreen.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/user/miker/lp_834042

Dan, that branch won't merge to 2.0 cleanly (I don't think) but I'll work on 2.0-ifying it tomorrow.

[Lebbeous Fogle-Weekley (lebbeous)]

Mike's branch works for 2.1 and master. I've signed-off and pushed to those branches.

[Mike Rylander (mrylander)]

Well, I finally got around to fixing this for 2.0.11. See: http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Evergreen.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/user/miker/lp_834042_20

Test 2.0 patch

[Bill Erickson (berick)]

Meant to say "testing" in my previous comment...

Patch tested in 2.0 and merged into rel_2_0.
