Hi ALL,

If i config the specific analyzer(my own analyzer) for fields of one index,  
does it mean the specific analyzer will be used when searching use the fields?

i.e.:  
mapping use below:

curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/twitter/tweet/\_mapping](http://localhost:9200/twitter/tweet/_mapping)' -d '  
{  
"tweet" : {  
"properties" : {  
"message" : {"type":"string", "index":"analyzed", "analyzer":"wintim-dict-based-analyzer"}  
}  
}  
}  
'  
use the follow query to search:

###### q=message:(whatever)&pretty=true
