Daniel Naber commented on LUCENE-453:
-------------------------------------

What about the other "case" statements in FieldDocSortedHitQueue that return 1 
or -1 but never 0. Should these be patched the same way?


> Using MultiSearcher and ParallelMultiSearcher can change the sort order.

>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-453
>      Project: Lucene - Java
>         Type: Bug
>   Components: Search
>     Versions: CVS Nightly - Specify date in submission
>  Environment: Checked with revision 314961 on 2005-10-12
>     Reporter: Luc Vanlerberghe
>  Attachments: FieldDocSortedHitQueue.diff, TestSort.diff
>
> When using multiple sort criteria the first criterium that indicates a 
> difference should be used.
> When a field does not exist for a given document, special rules apply.
> From what I see in the code, it is sorted as 0 for integer and float fields, 
> and null Strings are sorted before others.
> This works correctly in both Lucene 1.4.3 and in trunk as long as you use a 
> single IndexSearcher (except perhaps in special cases, see other bug reports 
> like LUCENE-374).
> However, in MultiSearcher and ParallelMultiSearcher, the results of the 
> separate IndexSearchers are merged and there an error occurs.
> The bug is located in FieldDocSortedHitQueue.
> It can even be demonstrated by passing a single indexSearcher to a 
> MultiSearcher.
> TestCase and patch follow.
