Database Query Search Time

[green-watch.org]

Hey Guys,

I know sorting has to be possible. There is documentation to sorting here:
http://lucene.apache.org/solr/tutorial.html#Sorting

This query here works for sorting:
http://localhost:8983/solr/products_id2/select/?q=gold&version=2.2&start=0&rows=10&indent=on&sort=custom3+desc

The cfsearch wrapper that is used to communicate with the SOLR interface does not look like it supports sorting, which is very odd - at least i can not find any documentation on this.

#1 - I am wondering if it is possible to use the value in a cfcollection custom3 column to influence the SCORE value. If this is possible, I might be able to force sorting the score a particular way instead of by relevancy.

#2 - I wonder if anybody has created a custom wrapper that communicates with the SOLR interface - an alternative to cfsearch.

My problems with cfsearch right now are sorting and returning columns in the result query that are not needed. I wonder if I can file suggestions for the next version of coldfusion.

Sincerely,
Travis Walters
