:) > Do you have any plans to implement searching/ranges for the Int32Type ? Yes, that is the intent. Int32Type is already `sortable`, and since RangeQuery needs sortable field types, ranges should work now. The principle reason that Int32Type is not yet public is that such fields cannot yet be `indexed`. To complete this feature, we need to perform some more refactoring of the inner indexing classes, including the Lexicon classes and PostingPool. (`S_write_terms_and_postings` in particular makes assumptions that all terms have a text type.) There are a few secondary issues as well, such as how QueryParser should handle numeric fields (it probably won't). A lot of times people have been able to simulate numeric fields by hacking in leading zeroes. Perhaps either that helps you, or perhaps the tidbit that RangeQuery should already work with Int32Type helps? Marvin Humphrey
