[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HSEARCH-434) Make use of NumericField

[G Fernandes (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HSEARCH-434?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=38341#action_38341 ] 

G Fernandes commented on HSEARCH-434:
-------------------------------------

Regarding NumericFields, only two params are need: precision and type, probably the type can be taken from the property? 
Also, the simple fact of supporting NumericFields provide a simple but efficient geo search, which covers the use case of searching all documents that are inside a box given by a pair of (lat,long). I've not used much Spatial Lucene, but AFAIK the cartesian tier modality need just one (advanced) configuration: the prefix of the name of the new internal fields that'll be created at index time to store the coordinates of the point in the several zoom levels. But that is not part of the field definiton itself, it's rather a global property for the index.
Btw, this issue was created as a task of Lucene 3.0 migration, but NumericFields are supported in Lucene 2.9 as well
