[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1733) Term.compareTo returns unexpected results. (field == other.field)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1733?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12727053#action_12727053 ] 

Yonik Seeley commented on LUCENE-1733:
--------------------------------------

The field names in Term instances should always be interned... did you somehow use the package-protected  constructor Term(String fld, String txt, boolean intern)?

>     if (field == other.field)			  // fields are interned

> I am developing a custom query class. I had unexpected results time to time. When I debugged the code I found that  Term.compareTo() method returns inconsistent values.  AfterI changed field == other.field statement to field.equals(other.field) the problem was solved.
