David Smiley commented on SOLR-2724:
------------------------------------
bq. David: looking back at the mailing list ~ 28/Mar/12 it's not clear what
exactly was the problem that required reverting at the time ... where the test
failures even caused by this specific issue, or something else that you
committed right around the same time?
That was in relation to another issue committed immediately before or after
this issue, and so to be safe this issue was reverted as it was unclear from
whoever did the reverting what was the cause of the problem. I am more
diligent about running all tests before committing now :-}
bq. Given that we've already created the 4x branch and started pushing towards
Alpha, i would at least move forward with making sure trunk & 4x are on parity
with 3.6 in terms of the changes to the example and the log/error messages.
Gladly. I have been awaiting further input. I'll post a patch.
RE removal of support for defaultSearchField: I may have long ago recommended
removing support for defaultSearchField (and default query operator) in the
code but I've long given up on that. It seems once something is in Solr, it
can't ever be removed, only discouraged/deprecated. I hope I'm wrong.

> I've always been surprised to see the <defaultSearchField> element and
> <solrQueryParser defaultOperator="OR"/> defined in the schema.xml file since
> the first time I saw them. They just seem out of place to me since they are
> more query parser related than schema related. But not only are they
> misplaced, I feel they shouldn't exist. For query parsers, we already have a
> "df" parameter that works just fine, and explicit field references. And the
> default lucene query operator should stay at OR -- if a particular query
> wants different behavior then use q.op or simply use "OR".
> <similarity> Seems like something better placed in solrconfig.xml than in the
> schema.
> In my opinion, defaultSearchField and defaultOperator configuration elements
> should be deprecated in Solr 3.x and removed in Solr 4. And <similarity>
> should move to solrconfig.xml. I am willing to do it, provided there is
> consensus on it of course.
