With ADC / scSearchContrib, is it possible for a dynamic field to be treated as numeric in lucene?

Looking at the NumberFieldCrawler class in the scSearchContrib solution has led to me the answer I think.

it contains the following code which seems to be what Lucene needs.

 long value;

 if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(_field.Value) && long.TryParse(_field.Value, out value))
 {
     return NumberTools.LongToString(value);
 }

Download the source of the Crawler here

There is an example of a custom FieldCrawler for a dynamic field in the class AllTemplatesField

Also notice that this custom FieldCrawler is added in the web.config in the section /crawlers/dynamicFields/

This should get you started, I guess.
