: I need to sort a query two ways. Should I do the search one way:
: s.getDocListAndSet(query, restrictions, sort, req.getStart(),
: req.getLimit(), flags);
: then do the same search again with a different sort value or is there a
: method available to just sort the DocSet (like sortDocSet but it's
: protected)
:
: OR maybe it doesn't matter because caching will handle it anyway?
check this out from the example solrconfig.xml...
<!-- An optimization that attempts to use a filter to satisfy a search.
If the requested sort does not include score, then the filterCache
will be checked for a filter matching the query. If found, the filter
will be used as the source of document ids, and then the sort will be
applied to that. -->
<useFilterForSortedQuery>true</useFilterForSortedQuery>
...in those conditions, you should be able to just call getDocList (or
getDocListAndSet) with your various Sort options and the cache will take
care of everything.
if you *do* want scores to be included in one of the Sorts, then i would
try doing that search first using getDocListAndSet -- you can ignore the
DocSet, but the next call to getDocList should leverage the filterCache,
and the initial getDocListANdSet call hsould be faster then two seperate
getDocList calls with different sorts...
...i think.
