Lucene.NET - sorting by int
- by Judah Himango
In the latest version of Lucene (or Lucene.NET), what is the proper way to get the search results back in sorted order?
I have a document like this:
var document = new Lucene.Document();
document.AddField("Text", "foobar");
document.AddField("CreationDate", DateTime.Now.Ticks.ToString()); // store the date as an int
lucene.AddDocument(document);
Now I want do a search and get my results back in order of most recent.
How can I do a search that orders results by CreationDate? All the documentation I see is for old Lucene versions that use now-deprecated APIs.
