strdist() doesn't seem to work for me (using Solr 3.6.0). I use a query like this one: ?fl=mycol &start=0 &rows=20 &q=mycol:abcd OR othercol:abcd &fq=somecol:someval &sort=strdist('abcd',mycol,edit) asc
I would have expected all documents with mycol == 'abcd' to be on top of the results (or at the bottom). Is that correct assumption? I see however results starting with such documents (which is good), then documents without any value for mycol and then again some with mycol == 'abcd'. mycol definition is pretty basic: <fieldType name="text_splitting" class="solr.TextField" positionIncrementGap="100"> <analyzer> <tokenizer class="solr.WhitespaceTokenizerFactory"/> <filter class="solr.LowerCaseFilterFactory"/> </analyzer> </fieldType> Is there a way to debug such (sort) function queries? Can I see the calculated sort value for example? Thanks, Alexander
