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 > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2671 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2671 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Search > Reporter: Ryan McKinley > Assignee: Ryan McKinley > Fix For: 4.0 > > Attachments: LUCENE-2671-caches.patch, > LUCENE-2671-SortMissingLast.patch, LUCENE-2671-suppress-unchecked.patch > > > 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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
