multiValued field
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2339?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13034492#comment-13034492 ]
Bill Bell commented on SOLR-2339:
---------------------------------
Guys,
How are we going to support sorting on multiValued fields?
Would a function work for this?

> In the past, Solr has relied on the underlying FieldCache to throw an error in situations where sorting on a field was not possible. however LUCENE-2142 has changed this, so that FieldCache never throws an error.
> In order to maintain the functionality of past Solr releases (ie: error when users attempt to sort on a field that we known will produce meaningless results) we should add some sort of check at the Solr level.
