java - Indexing an Enum type field with hibernate-search -

i having problems searching using hibernate search when index want use of enum type.

here example of application looks like:

@entity @indexed public class myentity{    @id    @field     public long id;    @field(bridge=@fieldbridge(impl=enumbridge.class))    public flavour flavour; } 

with

public enum flavour {   vanilla,   chocolate,   strawberry,   pistacchio; } 

then try find instances using type of query.

querybuilder qb = [~] ; query q = qb.keyword().onfield("flavour").matching(flavour.vanilla).createquery(); 

when test results comes empty. tried see content of indexes using luke , not seem find "flavour". re-index after committing changes. everyother type of indexing works , querying works on enum fields.

i have tried combination of norms, analyze, index, store, ... of @field annotation (i using hibernate-search 4.5.x hibernate 4.3.1).

what doing wrong? settings should looking at? welcome.

the entity seems store flavour using ordinal (so column flavour contains 0 instead of "vanilla").

i don't know, enumbridge doing, suggest store enumeration string:

@entity @indexed public class myentity{     @id     @field      public long id;      @field(bridge=@fieldbridge(impl=enumbridge.class))     @enumerated(enumtype.string)     public flavour flavour; }
