How about using range query?
private Term begin, end;
begin = new Term("dateField",
DateTools.dateToString(Date.valueOf(<"backInTimeStringDate">)));
end = new Term("dateField",
DateTools.dateToString(Date.valueOf(<"farFutureStringDate">)));
RangeQuery query = new RangeQuery(begin, end, true);
IndexSearcher searcher = new IndexSearcher(directory);
Hits hits = searcher.search(query);
Document minDoc = hits.doc(0);
Document maxDoc = hits.doc(hits.length()-1);
String minDateString = minDoc.get("dateField");
String maxDateString = maxDoc.get("dateField");
This certainly is an interesting solution. How would lucene score this
result set? The first and last will depend on the score...
I guess I can build up a quick test........
