David Smiley commented on SOLR-11444:
-------------------------------------

[~erickerickson] This issue, SOLR-11444, should not change the semantics of 
either of those issues (SOLR-10181 or SOLR-11218).  However both issues touch 
the same files as this one and so there will be some merge conflicts for one or 
both of us to get through if our mutual work overlaps.

If there are no further comments, I'd like to commit this Monday and let the 
tests beat on it a bit.  In a subsequent commit I can adjust Solr's 
documentation to point out that collection references in the path can be a 
comma delimited list (new).  I should add some docs too.

> Improve Aliases.java and comma delimited collection list handling

> While starting to look at SOLR-11299 I noticed some brittleness in 
> assumptions about Strings that refer to a collection.  Sometimes they are in 
> fact references to comma separated lists, which appears was added with the 
> introduction of collection aliases (an alias can refer to a comma delimited 
> list).  So Java's type system kind of goes out the window when we do this.  
> In one case this leads to a bug -- CloudSolrClient will throw an NPE if you 
> try to write to such an alias.  Sending an update via HTTP will allow it and 
> send it to the first in the list.
> So this issue is about refactoring and some little improvements pertaining to 
> Aliases.java plus certain key spots that deal with collection references.  I 
> don't think I want to go as far as changing the public SolrJ API except to 
> adding documentation on what's possible.
