ExternalFileFields fail if valType='float', and valType should be optional
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-2971
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2971
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Schema and Analysis
Affects Versions: 3.5, 4.0
Environment: all
Reporter: Erick Erickson
Assignee: Erick Erickson
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 3.6, 4.0
valType has never done anything except throw an error, the underlying
ValueSource has always been a FileFloatSource. To add to the confusion, the
documents say use "float", which throws an exception on Solr startup every
since "float" was re-defined as a TrieFloatField. "pfloat" works currently
though.
Since valType is never used for anything, we should make it optional until such
a time as it is.
Additionally, TrieFloatField (valtype="float|tfloat") types should be OK as a
field type along with FloatField(valType="pfloat")
