Jason Gerlowski updated SOLR-8110:
----------------------------------
Attachment: SOLR-8110.patch
Not ready for review yet. Just putting it up here as backup (or in case I'm
going down a path that's completely wrong). A few notes:
- added verification checks in {{IndexSchema}} and {{DocumentBuilder}}. These
depend on the luceneMatchVersion being >= 6.0. Easy to change if we want this
to be configured differently.
- no tests yet. Plan on adding them shortly.
Hope to resume work on this tomorrow.
> Start enforcing field naming recomendations in next X.0 release?

> For a very long time now, Solr has made the following "recommendation"
> regarding field naming conventions...
> bq. field names should consist of alphanumeric or underscore characters only
> and not start with a digit. This is not currently strictly enforced, but
> other field names will not have first class support from all components and
> back compatibility is not guaranteed. ...
> I'm opening this issue to track discussion about if/how we should start
> enforcing this as a rule instead (instead of just a "recommendation") in our
> next/future X.0 (ie: major) release.
> The goals of doing so being:
> * simplify some existing code/apis that currently use hueristics to deal with
> lists of field and produce strange errors when the huerstic fails (example:
> ReturnFields.add)
> * reduce confusion/pain for new users who might start out unaware of the
> recommended conventions and then only later encountering a situation where
> their field names are not supported by some feature and get frustrated
> because they have to change their schema, reindex, update index/query client
> expectations, etc...
