Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-4653:
------------------------------------
bq. for the purposes of the example configs, we wanted something less strict so
that (combined with the lazy load option on plugins) the example configs could
refer to contrib jars [...]
Right. This is really more a change in behavior than a bug fix, and it seems
like we should be comprehensive and also deal with the reasons why it was added
in the first place (i.e. we need to figure out what to do with the lazy loaded
plugins like solr-cell). Docs like the README under example, and
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/ExtractingRequestHandler would also need to change.
Changing to a hard fail has back compat issues too. We have often recommended
copying the "example" directory as a starting point, and most of those will be
pointing to directores that don't exist.
On balance it feels like not failing hard (i.e. keeping the current behavior,
but adding logging) is the best middle ground right now. If one does get a
class-not-found exception, we'll have the better logging to help track it down.
