----------------------------------

             Summary: Contrary to the documentation sorted queues put messages without a sorting key at the head of the queue
                 Key: QPID-6762
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6762
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation, Java Broker
            Reporter: Lorenz Quack
            Priority: Minor


The documentation for sorted queues \[1] currently states:
bq. Messages sent to a sorted queue without the specified JMS message property will be inserted into the 'last' position in the queue.

This is not correct. The implementation treats a non existing key as the smallest possible value. The queue itself is in a smallest first order meaning a message without sorting key will be put at the *head* of the queue.
