Order by distance (Project Test attached)

[Albert Clemente Peláez <al...@anuntis.com>]

Hello,

Here you have a demo where you can see the order of the results in a spatial search it's not ordered by proximity as expected.

I hope it helps! ;)

Hello,

I attach you a Test in C# where you can see there should be a bug in a spatial search (it's not ordered by distance).

I hope it helps ;)

Regards

hits = lucene_searcher.Search(strategy.MakeQuery(spatialargs), 100)

Should work

If it doesn't, please provide a full failing test in C#
