Sure. Using that method allowed me to delete a lot of SortComparator code that was previously copy-n-pasted from Lucene into Solr. Solr is basically using the comparators to get the sort field values to return during distributed search, so docs can be merged. Yes, we should be able to get that from FieldDoc... but that would require a number of changes to the APIs, and also to caching. -Yonik http://www.lucidimagination.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
