Hello Folks, Previously, I was using version 1.3 of Lucene that had no complex sorting abilities, so I wrote my own code to do this using a TreeMap and Comparator. The sorting was basically lower case comparisons of strings with a few extra little tweaks here and there.
This past weekend I upgraded to 1.4.3 of Lucene and am looking for some help with custom sorting code. My application stores a couple of mixed-case text fields 'author' and 'title' as Field.Text and I would like to sort on these fields in a case insensitive manner. I have been looking at the DistanceComparatorSource example in the 'Lucene In Action' book and have been trying to adapt that to my humble needs, but so far no luck. For some reason, I just can't get my head round the example in order to tailor it to my needs. Does anyone have any example ComparatorSource code that sorts strings ignoring the case ? Thanks IAP __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
