Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-1449: ------------------------------------ bq. We can have some instructions or scripts (I assume we don't want ant) to copy the jars to the correct places for running solr-cell examples. Is there a problem with that? For the same reason we have an example at all I guess - a better out-of-the-box experience. IMO, Solr *is* an enterprise search server, not a bunch of jars you wire together yourself to create one. It would be nice if we could do database import from the same example server... but I think JDBC driver issues (and the necessity to have a database to connect to?) make this tougher. > solrconfig.xml syntax to add classpath elements from outside of instanceDir > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-1449 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1449 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Hoss Man > Fix For: 1.4 > > Attachments: SOLR-1449.patch > > > the idea has been discussed numerous times that it would be nice if there was > a way to configure a core to load plugins from specific jars (or "classes" > style directories) by path w/o needing to copy them to the "./lib" dir in > the instanceDir. > The current workaround is "symlinks" but that doesn't really help the > situation of the Solr Release artifacts, where we wind up making numerous > copies of jars to support multiple example directories (you can't have > reliable symlinks in zip files) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
