I've recently made some specific additional changes (regarding scoring, as I

the distribution and which have not.

I'm using the latest CVS HEAD version of the searchbean codebase, just for comparisons sake.

However, since then I've been using SearchBean extensively and, my version
at least, works fine for sorting in either ascending or descending date (or
relevance) order on whatever field I choose.

How are you switching between ascending and descending sort?

In HitsIterator, its hardcoded to a particular field. Why? I've removed this restriction and here is the diff:

public HitsIterator(Hits hits, String sortFlag) throws IOException{
this.hitsCollection = hits;
if (sortFlag != null){
- if ((sortFlag != "") && (sortFlag.equals(SearchBean.SORT_FIELD_RELEVANCE))){
- //logger.debug("Sorting hits by field "+sortFlag);
+ if (sortFlag != "") {
+ System.out.println("Sorting hits by field "+sortFlag);
sortByField(sortFlag);
//logger.debug("Completed sorting by field "+sortFlag);
}

Please let me know what kind of problems you're having and I'll see if I can
help.

SearchBean itself is hardcoded to the StandardAnalyzer. To be generally useful this needs to be made configurable.

Those were the main issues I've had. I'm assuming you've made changes in your version of SearchBean to account for at least the field name to sort on, or you're always using "relevance" :)
