Help with the Java API

Question

Search on an attribute of the custom class using the Java
API.
I taking one of the provided classes, a "VCARD Street Address."
Inserted the XML for it. Added some documents of that class.
Then I set City="Charlotte." Double-checked it in the database with
sql*plus -- I see records matching city=charlotte.
However, searching using the Java API, I comes up blank. Using the
following classes:
attributequalification
searchclause
search

You said 'Then I set City="Charlotte." Double-checked it in the database with
sql*plus -- I see records matching city=charlotte.'
Your description uses both 'Charlotte' and 'charlotte'.
Does the word 'Charlotte' appear in the database in all lower case or mixed-case?
null
