I have a view that has timestamps as keys in a UTC format, like “2016-08-18T23:14:54.584Z”. I’m using the java api to query the view:
ViewQuery.from("foo", "bar")
.stale(Stale.UPDATE_AFTER)
.limit(500)
.includeDocs()
.descending(true);
I assumed that specifying .descending(true) would result in the documents coming out in descending order of their key. But that’s not what’s happening. They are mostly in that order, but not quite. I printed them out to be sure:
2016-08-18T23:17:55.328Z

Am I doing something wrong?
