public IRavenQueryable<T> search(Path<?> fieldSelector, String searchTerms, double boost, SearchOptionsSet searchOptions);

public IRavenQueryable<T> search(Path<?> fieldSelector, String searchTerms, double boost, SearchOptionsSet searchOptions, EscapeQueryOptions escapeQueryOptions);

List<User> users = session
  .query(User.class, "Users/ByNameAndHobbies")
  .search(u.name, "Adam")
  .search(u.hobbies, "sport")
  .toList();

Example II
