Query sort type problem

[jmrenouard]

Hello,
String class is not declared in the getSortType method from the class ConvertionUtils.java

So, when you want to sort string you sort by score ( the default sort stategy).

We have a problem with the String sort type and this code help us to fix the problem.

public static int getSortType(Class clazz, String field)
        throws SearchException {
    java.lang.reflect.Field fi;
    try {
        fi = clazz.getField(field);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        String tok=field.substring(0, field.indexOf('_'));

        if (tok.equals(field))throw new SearchException("The field " + field
                + " is not found on class " + clazz);

        return getSortType(clazz, tok);
    }
    Class type = fi.getType();
    if (type.equals(String.class))
        return SortField.STRING_VAL;
    if (type.equals(long.class) || type.equals(Long.class))
        return SortField.LONG;
    if (type.equals(int.class) || type.equals(Integer.class))
        return SortField.INT;
    if (type.equals(double.class) || type.equals(Double.class))
        return SortField.DOUBLE;
    if (type.equals(float.class) || type.equals(Float.class))
        return SortField.FLOAT;
    if (type.equals(short.class) || type.equals(Short.class))
        return SortField.SHORT;
    if (type.equals(byte.class) || type.equals(Byte.class))
        return SortField.BYTE;
    return SortField.SCORE;
}
