This might be a fix, it reduces the number of cases that are considered ordered
matches. It also passes all unit tests here:
private boolean matchIsOrdered() {
SpansCell spansCell = (SpansCell) ordered.get(0);
int lastStart = spansCell.start(); // no need to compare doc nrs here.
int lastEnd = spansCell.end();
for (int i = 1; i < ordered.size(); i++) {
spansCell = (SpansCell) ordered.get(i);
int start = spansCell.start();
int end = spansCell.end();
if ((start < lastStart) || ((start == lastStart) && (end <= lastEnd))) {
return false; // also equal begin and end is not ordered.
}
lastStart = start;
lastEnd = end;
}
return true;
}
Could you replace the matchIsOrdered() method with the above one
and see whether you can still reproduce the "Unexptected: ordered"
exception?
There is some interplay between the matchIsOrdered() method and
the lessThan() method in CellQueue that also uses the SpansCell index,
and I hope this gets it right.
