Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-1754: ------------------------------------ bq. Is there really any memory efficiency from IntField that can't be achieved with an appropriate precisionStep on TrieIntField? Nope... sorting on both will be equivalent, regardless of what the precisionStep is. > Legacy numeric types do not check input for bad syntax > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: SOLR-1754 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1754 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.4 > Reporter: Lance Norskog > Fix For: 1.5 > > > The legacy numeric types do not check their input values for valid input. A > text string is accepted as input for any of these types: IntField, LongField, > FloatField, DoubleField. DateField checks its input. > In general this is a no-fix, except: that IntField is a necessary memory type > because it cuts memory use in sorting. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
