Hi,
I am just wondering what the status of these issues (SOLR-139 and
SOLR-828) is for supporting updateable/modifiable documents.
Specifically
* Is anyone is clinging to an update of the SOLR-139 patch?
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12379550/Eriks-ModifiableDocument.patch
from 2008-04-07 doesn't apply cleanly anymore)
* Where do people think this is at in terms of the completed
solution?
* Is SOLR-828 seeking to replace SOLR-139?
If you want something to work now, take the SOLR-828 approach. (I
have a working version of 139, but it is really ugly and not something
I would recommend using)
As for the future of this, I think the basic design needs some
thought. I *think* we need to introduce a pluggable
'storedDocumentLoader'; the default implementation could load the
document from stored fields other implementations could load from SQL,
disk or whatever. Given the concurrency issues, I think this needs to
be done within the DirectUpdateHandler rather then an UpdateProcessor.
My current work does not require modifiable documents, so I have not
focused on it much...
