Hoss Man commented on SOLR-264:
-------------------------------
Uhh, guys ... this code violates the contract of Comparator (which is
admittedly not an explicit part of the of ScoreDocComparator contract, but it
is implied) because:
1) the method isn't stable ... compare(x,y) is not garunteed to have the same
sign as a subsequent compare(x,y)
2) it doesn't guarantee that the sign of compare(x,y) is the negation of the
sign of compare(y,x)
3) it doesn't guarantee a transitive property ... if ((compare(x, y)>0) &&
(compare(y, z)>0)) then: compare(x, z)>0.
