Hex support in Lucene

[Rajnish kamboj]

Hi

We want to index and search hex numbers (including hex ranges) in Lucene.

We are using Lucene 5.3.1
I could find only Int and long but not hex.

My hex numbers are IPV6 excluding colon. Long can not hold such big hex
numbers.

What could be the possible solution to this.

Regards
Rajnish

Hello Rajnish,

Have you seen InetAddressPoint?
