James Taylor updated PHOENIX-4237:
----------------------------------
    Attachment: PHOENIX-4237_v1.patch

[~shehzaadn] - here's your patch with a couple of minor tweaks:
- removed @author tags which ASF frowns on
- tweaked CollationKeyFunction.evaluate to return false if the string argument 
could not be evaluated. This isn't an error condition, but may just mean that 
the underlying data has not been retrieved yet.
- removed resulting unused code
- lowered log level to trace for your debugging since some organizations run 
with debug on (and those messages would generate a ton of log messages, i.e. 
multiple lines per row).

If I attempt to run the unit tests, I get this error message, though. Please 
advise.

> Strings stored via Phoenix can be composed from a subset of the entire set of 
> Unicode characters. The natural sort order for strings for different 
> languages often differs from the order dictated by the binary representation 
> of the characters of these strings. Java provides the idea of a Collator 
> which given an input string and a (language) locale can generate a Collation 
> Key which can then be used to compare strings in that natural order.
> Salesforce has recently open-sourced grammaticus. IBM has open-sourced ICU4J 
> some time ago. These technologies can be combined to provide a robust new 
> Phoenix function that can be used in an ORDER BY clause to sort strings 
> according to the user's locale.
