James Dyer updated SOLR-2010:
-----------------------------

    Attachment: SOLR-2010_shardSearchHandler_993538.patch
                SOLR-2010_shardRecombineCollations_993538.patch

Two new versions of the patch:

1. SOLR-2010_shardSearchHandler_993538.patch is the same as the 8/23/2010 
version except it applies cleanly to trunk revision #993538.  In a Distributed 
setup, this version calls an overloaded method on SearchHandler to use its 
logic for combining results from the collation test queries.  This is simpler 
code but requires many more round-trips between shards.  We also can guarantee 
that a Distributed setup will always return the exact same collations in order 
as a non-Distributed setup.  

2. SOLR-2010_shardRecombineCollations_993538.patch is similar to the 8/19/2010 
version, with improvements.  This version also applies cleanly to trunk 
revision #993538.  In a Distributed setup, each shard calls QueryComponent 
individually and generates its own list of Collations.  The SpellCheckComponent 
then combines and sorts the resulting collations, returning the best ones, up 
to the client-specified maximum.  This requires more complicated logic in 
SpellCheckComponent.finishStage(), although it does not necessitate changes to 
SearchHandler or ResponseBuilder.  It may be possible to find cases where a 
Distributed setup may return different collations--or the same collations in a 
different order--than a non-distributed setup.  I do not believe this potential 
disparity would ever be very significant.

Grant, I believe version 1 is something like what you were thinking of on 8/9 
and 8/19.  Version 2 is more like what you describe in your comment from 8/30.  
Let me know if you think this needs any more tweaking.  ALSO, if you're 
thinking of possibly committing this someday, you may want to look at SOLR-2049 
also.  Based on my understanding, distributed SpellCheckComponent as exists 
currently in Trunk is broken.  (If I'm right), we may want to fix it before 
adding on more functionality.

> Improvements to SpellCheckComponent Collate functionality
> Our project requires a better Spell Check Collator.  I'm contributing this as 
> a patch to get suggestions for improvements and in case there is a broader 
> need for these features.
> 1. Only return collations that are guaranteed to result in hits if re-queried 
> (applying original fq params also).  This is especially helpful when there is 
> more than one correction per query.  The 1.4 behavior does not verify that a 
> particular combination will actually return hits.
> 2. Provide the option to get multiple collation suggestions
> 3. Provide extended collation results including the # of hits re-querying 
> will return and a breakdown of each misspelled word and its correction.
> This patch is similar to what is described in SOLR-507 item #1.  Also, this 
> patch provides a viable workaround for the problem discussed in SOLR-1074.  A 
> dictionary could be created that combines the terms from the multiple fields. 
>  The collator then would prune out any spurious suggestions this would cause.
> This patch adds the following spellcheck parameters:
> 1. spellcheck.maxCollationTries - maximum # of collation possibilities to try 
> before giving up.  Lower values ensure better performance.  Higher values may 
> be necessary to find a collation that can return results.  Default is 0, 
> which maintains backwards-compatible behavior (do not check collations).
> 2. spellcheck.maxCollations - maximum # of collations to return.  Default is 
> 1, which maintains backwards-compatible behavior.
> 3. spellcheck.collateExtendedResult - if true, returns an expanded response 
> format detailing collations found.  default is false, which maintains 
> backwards-compatible behavior.  When true, output is like this (in context):

> In addition, SOLRJ is updated to include 
> SpellCheckResponse.getCollatedResults(), which will return the expanded 
> Collation format.  getCollatedResult(), which returns a single String, is 
> retained for backwards-compatibility.  Other APIs were not changed but will 
> still work provided that spellcheck.collateExtendedResult is false.
> This likely will not return valid results if using Shards.  Rather, a more 
> robust interaction with the index would be necessary than what exists in 
> SpellCheckCollator.collate().
