Jack Krupansky commented on SOLR-5065:
--------------------------------------

My main point was really that it was a shocking surprise to find out that this 
processor did not accept a number that was acceptable to both Java and JSON as 
well as Solr itself for "double" and "float" fields. I would also note that 
Python and JavaScript allow optional plus for exponents as well. Many other 
languages as well.

To put it more simply, how would a user, reading the Javadoc for this processor 
have any F'in clue that a plus is not acceptable in an exponent?

I'd be willing to chalk this up to a bug/limitation in NumberFormat - IFF the 
limitation gets documented for this processor. I read through the NumberFormat 
Javadoc as carefully as I could and could find no hint that it had such a 
limitation. I mean, I just assumed it would accept Java numbers. Obviously my 
assumption was wrong. Sigh.

And my real bottom line is that if a double syntax is acceptable by Solr itself 
for a double/trie double field, it should be acceptable by this processor... 
or, that any limitation that is different from Solr double field should be 
clearly documented.

> The input value of a13 was the same as a5, but was treated as a string, 
> rather than parsed as a double. So, JSON/Java was able to parse "4.5E+10", 
> but this update processor was not.
