Hi Ganesh, I have already tried my own comparator, below is my code :
SortComparator comparator = new SortComparator() { @Override protected Comparable getComparable(String arg0) { final String str = arg0; Comparable comparable = new Comparable() { @Override public int compareTo(Object o) { System.out.println("obj = "+o.getClass()+", str = "+str); return o.toString().compareToIgnoreCase(str); } }; return comparable; } }; SortField sortField = new SortField("110_a_t", comparator); Sort sort = new Sort(sortField); org.apache.lucene.search.Hits catalogueHits=search.indexSearcher.search(query, sort); ------------------------------------------------- here the lucene is passing the present class (org.verus.ngl.lucene.search.NGLSearch$1$1) object to compareTo method, but it is not a term to compare with anather term so, how to implement the SortComparator, where should i change the code for my comparator Output : obj = class org.verus.ngl.lucene.search.NGLSearch$1$1, str = Adalf Hitler obj = class org.verus.ngl.lucene.search.NGLSearch$1$1, str = Adalf Hitler obj = class org.verus.ngl.lucene.search.NGLSearch$1$1, str = agdfgdgdfg obj = class org.verus.ngl.lucene.search.NGLSearch$1$1, str = agdfgdgdfg obj = class org.verus.ngl.lucene.search.NGLSearch$1$1, str = afhuhruhgjr obj = class org.verus.ngl.lucene.search.NGLSearch$1$1, str = afhuhruhgjr obj = class org.verus.ngl.lucene.search.NGLSearch$1$1, str = afsfdsgsd obj = class org.verus.ngl.lucene.search.NGLSearch$1$1, str = afsfdsgsd obj = class org.verus.ngl.lucene.search.NGLSearch$1$1, str = adsadsd Results are : id = 134, docId = 105 id = 135, docId = 106 id = 102, docId = 73 id = 100, docId = 71 id = 101, docId = 72 id = 122, docId = 93 id = 127, docId = 98 id = 132, docId = 103 id = 143, docId = 114 Ganesh - yahoo wrote: > > You need to write your own sort comparator > SortField(String field, SortComparatorSource comparator) > > Regards > Ganesh > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "naveen.quill" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <java-user@lucene.apache.org> > Sent: Friday, November 21, 2008 11:27 AM > Subject: how to sort the result by ignoring case in lucene > > >> >> Hi, >> >> I have a query regarding the sorting techniques in the lucene i.e >> if i apply the sort method to the search results, lucene is sorting the >> results by, without ignoring case, so, how to apply the sort technique >> that >> it should sort by ignoring case >> >> i.e : >> if the results value are : {ACB, abc, adc, Aad}, >> After sorting the results by lucene : {Aad, ACB, abc, adc} [here the >> lucene >> is taking uppercase words first to sort the results then lowercase], >> but i need to get the results in this order : {Aad, abc, ACB, adc} >> >> so how to sort the results by ignoring case >> >> here is my code : >> String queryComplex = "110_a_t:a* 110_a_t:A*"; >> SortField sortField = new SortField("110_a_t", SortField.STRING); >> Sort sort = new Sort(sortField); >> QueryParser queryParser=new QueryParser("",new StandardAnalyzer()); >> queryParser.setLowercaseExpandedTerms(false); >> Query query = queryParser.parse(queryComplex); >> org.apache.lucene.search.Hits >> catalogueHits=search.indexSearcher.search(query, sort); >> -- >> View this message in context: >> http://www.nabble.com/how-to-sort-the-result-by-ignoring-case-in-lucene-tp20615647p20615647.html >> Sent from the Lucene - Java Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. >> >> >> --------------------------------------------------------------------- >> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> > > Send instant messages to your online friends http://in.messenger.yahoo.com > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/how-to-sort-the-result-by-ignoring-case-in-lucene-tp20615647p20615846.html Sent from the Lucene - Java Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
