The #string_value is used in the Rails HowToIntegrateFerretWithRails demo application on the Rails Wiki http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowToIntegrateFerretWithRails It is used in the ./app/views/search/get_results.rhtml template for example: <strong><a href="<%= result.field('url').string_value %>"> I don't know Lucene well enough to know wether there's an alternative way of doing the the same thing. I've not come across any usage of the other two methods. Apologies for the time taken to reply, I've only just spotted your reply.
