Ryan McKinley commented on LUCENE-2671:
---------------------------------------

bq. This is not true, it returns DocTermCreator.DocTermsImpl and gives an ugly 
cast

DocTermCreator.DocTermsImpl (a private class only accessible within 
DocTermCreator) extends DocTerms and so it is true.

I won't argue about the ugly cast. :)

in #1023379 I changed DocTermsCreator and DocTermsIndexCreator to bind directly 
to the class (rather then T extends XXX)  This is a bit more clear, but does 
not let you extend the generic API (not that you need to)

> Add sort missing first/last ability to SortField and ValueComparator

> When SortField and ValueComparator use EntryCreators (from LUCENE-2649) they 
> use a special sort value when the field is missing.
> This enables lucene to implement 'sort missing last' or 'sort missing first' 
> for numeric values from the FieldCache.
