Noble Paul commented on SOLR-1449: ---------------------------------- I'm back from vacation and I realize that we have gone a long way in this issue. There is an issue SOLR-919 which enables re-use of SolrConfig object. To make it work we will have to make SolrConfig agnostic of SolrCore. So, the best solution is to make SolrCore add the jars to SolrResourceLoader. So SolrConfig can just return a data structure and SolrCore can decide how to add the jars to the path > 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 > Assignee: Hoss Man > Fix For: 1.4 > > Attachments: SOLR-1449.patch, SOLR-1449.patch, SOLR-1449.patch, > SOLR-1449.patch, SOLR-1449.patch, SOLR-1449.patch, 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.
