Ryan McKinley commented on SOLR-2423:
-------------------------------------
FYI, I ran into this because I am experimenting with different ways to index
spatial data and want to index the same data with multiple representations.
Converting to/from string each time is silly and with this the CopyField "just
works"
> FieldType can take Object rather then String

> Currently, FieldType takes a String value and converts that to whatever it
> uses internally -- it would be great to be able to pass an Object in
> directly. For embeded solr, and for UpdateRequestProcessors that wish to
> reuse objects in various fields, this will avoid conversion to and from
> string.
> This is a major API change, so it should only apply to 4.0
