             Summary: Remove classfile dependency on ZooKeeper from 
CoreContainer
                 Key: SOLR-3526
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3526
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: SolrCloud
    Affects Versions: 4.0
            Reporter: Michael Froh


We are using Solr as a library embedded within an existing application, and are 
currently developing toward using 4.0 when it is released.

We are currently instantiating SolrCores with null CoreDescriptors (and hence 
no CoreContainer), since we don't need SolrCloud functionality (and do not want 
to depend on ZooKeeper).

A couple of months ago, SearchHandler was modified to try to retrieve a 
ShardHandlerFactory from the CoreContainer. I was able to work around this by 
specifying a dummy ShardHandlerFactory in the config.

Now UpdateRequestProcessorChain is inserting a DistributedUpdateProcessor into 
my chains, again triggering a NPE when trying to dereference the CoreDescriptor.

I would happily place the SolrCores in CoreContainers, except that 
CoreContainer imports and references org.apache.zookeeper.KeeperException, 
which we do not have (and do not want) in our classpath. Therefore, I get a 
ClassNotFoundException when loading the CoreContainer class.

Ideally (IMHO), ZkController should isolate the ZooKeeper dependency, and 
simply rethrow KeeperExceptions as 
org.apache.solr.common.cloud.ZooKeeperException (or some Solr-hosted checked 
exception). Then CoreContainer could remove the offending import/references.
