Hi,
I'm am trying to sort a date field in my index but I'm seeing strange results.
I have searched the Lucene user mail archive for Datetools but still couldn't
figure out the problem.
The date field is indexed as follows (i.e. DateTools is used, date field is
stored and untokenized):
String dateString = DateTools.dateToString (myDateObject,
DateTools.Resolution.SECOND);
Field field = new Field (DATE_FIELD, dateString, Field.Store.YES,
Field.Index.UN_TOKENIZED);
field.setOmitNorms (true);
document.add (field);
=====
I executed the search with a reverse sort on the DATE_FIELD:
QueryParser queryParser = new QueryParser ("field1", new StandardAnalyzer ());
Query query = queryParser.parse ("txt:\"sum\"");
IndexSearcher searcher = new IndexSearcher (indexDirectory);
TopFieldDocs topFieldDocs = searcher.search (query, null, 10000, new Sort
(DATE_FIELD, true));
for (int i = 0; i < topFieldDocs.totalHits; i++)
{
Document document = searcher.doc (topFieldDocs.scoreDocs[i].doc);
String date = document.get (DATE_FIELD);
System.out.println (date);
}

As you can see, the output below is not sorted correctly (e.g. 20070902233024
comes before 20070902233048). Does anyone know what the problem is? Thank you.
