Gus Heck commented on SOLR-599:
-------------------------------
It's fine if we have an additional client not supporting aliases, but aliases
(for lots of reasons other than TRA's) are part of solr, so the "lightweight"
client needs to be clear that it's not a full replacement for the zookeeper
based solrj client then. Not supporting Aliases makes re-indexing scenarios
difficult too. The swap out of a newly indexed collection will be much more
prone to some clients getting the old data for a while, which means that
consumers have to be coded to handle both old and new schema without error. I'm
only bringing this stuff up because I was getting the impression that this was
being viewed as a full featured alternative to the existing client.

> SolrJ provides a SolrServer implementation backed by commons-httpclient which
> introduces many dependency jars (commons-codec, commons-io and
> commons-logging). Apart from that SolrJ also uses StAX API for XML parsing
> which introduces dependencies like stax-api, stax and stax-utils.
> This enhancement will add a SolrServer implementation backed by
> java.net.HttpUrlConnection and will use BinaryResponseParser as the default
> response parser. Using this basic implementation out of the box would require
> no dependencies on either commons-httpclient or StAX. The only dependency
> would be on solr-commons making this a very lightweight and distribution
> friendly Java client for Solr.
