Why do we need this magic in String-> Object conversion at all? > Declarative configuration meta-data for Solr plugins > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-1668 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1668 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Schema and Analysis > Affects Versions: 1.4 > Reporter: Uri Boness > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.5 > > Attachments: commons-beanutils-1.8.2.jar, SOLR-1668.patch > > > The idea here is for plugins in Solr to carry more meta data over their > configuration.
