Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-3390:
---------------------------------------
bq. I am currently looking into a possibility to remove the additional
uninversion, if the FieldCache already uninverted the field. The bitset should
be populated together with the values, but still stored as a separate cache
entry.
After reading the comments in LUCENE-2649 I don't want to discuss this again.
In my opinion, it does not matter to always produce the bitset, even if not
needed. But as there are people who care about maxDoc/8 additional bytes in
FieldCache seem to fight against this idea, so I would leave this open.
I would like to fix the issue, any comments on the new and trunk-like
FieldComparator implementation/class structure?

> Key: LUCENE-3390
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3390
> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core/search
> Affects Versions: 3.3
> Reporter: Gilad Barkai
> Assignee: Doron Cohen
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: double, float, int, long, numeric, sort
> Fix For: 3.4

>
> While sorting results over a numeric field, documents which do not contain a
> value for the sorting field seem to get 0 (ZERO) value in the sort. (Tested
> against Double, Float, Int & Long numeric fields ascending and descending
> order).
> This behavior is unexpected, as zero is "comparable" to the rest of the
> values. A better solution would either be allowing the user to define such a
> "non-value" default, or always bring those document results as the last ones.
> Example scenario:
> Adding 3 documents, 1st with value 3.5d, 2nd with -10d, and 3rd without any
> value.
> Searching with MatchAllDocsQuery, with sort over that field in descending
> order yields the docid results of 0, 2, 1.
> Asking for the top 2 documents brings the document without any value as the
> 2nd result - which seems as a bug?
