Re: Sorting by NumericField not working

NumericField include int float double ... and so on. but your sort uses 
SortField.int .  Maybe that is the key point.

主题： Sorting by NumericField not working 
 
Hi,

I'm trying to sort results by a NumericField but the results do not sort
(still appear in default score order). The NumericField was indexed using
the code below:

NumericField field = new NumericField(name,
NumericUtils.PRECISION_STEP_DEFAULT, Field.Store.YES, false);
field.setIntValue(value);
document.add(field);

The searcher uses the following code to attempt to sort at search:

Sort sortBySize = new Sort(new SortField[] { new SortField("subj",
SortField.INT) });
TopFieldDocs topDocs = searcher.search(tq, null, limit, sortBySize);

Any ideas please? Is this the right method of sorting using a NumericField?
