Hoss Man commented on SOLR-356: ------------------------------- bq. Maybe I'm missing something from the recommendation though. Were you recommending using XML to express the functions themselves, or something else about the xml-query-parser? I was not suggesting an XML syntax ... just that the approach the xml-query-parser takes to deal with recursively parsing/eval-ing the XML structure using "user" configured implementations for each type of XML node seems to map closely to the idea of recusively parsing/eval-ing parenthetical function syntax using "user" configured implantations for each function name. In both cases the XML/paren parsing is trivial, it's deciding how to let the "user" tell you what Java objects to build based on each node/function name that gets interesting. (like i said, i haven't looked at the xml-query-parser code since it was orriginally being written .. i may be over romanticizing the idea behind it's design and how applicable it could be in this case) > pluggable functions (value sources) > ----------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-356 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-356 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Yonik Seeley > Attachments: pluggableFunctions.patch, pluggableFunctions.patch > > > allow configuration of new value sources ot be created by the function query > parser. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
