Uwe Schindler updated LUCENE-3065: ---------------------------------- Comment: was deleted (was: Patch against 3.x. I moved the to/from byte[] methods from Solr's TrieField into Lucene's NumericUtils, and fixed FieldsWriter/Reader to use free bits in the field's flags to know if the field is Numeric, and which type. I added a random test case to verify we now get the right NumericField back, when we stored NumericField during indexing. Old indices are handled fine (you'll get a String-ified Field back like you did before). Spookily, nothing failed in Solr... I assume there's somewhere in Solr that must now be fixed to handle the fact that a field can come back as NumericField? Anyone know where...?) > NumericField should be stored in binary format in index (matching Solr's > format) > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-3065 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3065 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Reporter: Michael McCandless > Assignee: Uwe Schindler > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.2, 4.0 > > Attachments: LUCENE-3065.patch, LUCENE-3065.patch, LUCENE-3065.patch, > LUCENE-3065.patch, LUCENE-3065.patch, LUCENE-3065.patch, LUCENE-3065.patch > > > (Spinoff of LUCENE-3001) > Today when writing stored fields we don't record that the field was a > NumericField, and so at IndexReader time you get back an "ordinary" Field and > your number has turned into a string.
