1. I didn't understand the part above in your reply. If I search for
samsung camera, the query should be like this in the select URL:
q=samsung+camera
And if samsung is mandatory, the query will be like this: (or not:)
q=+samsung+camera
Or not. You need that first plus encoded as %2b:
q=%2bsamsung+camera
And the first + will be interpreted as mandatory flag?
It is interpreted as a space.
Here's a good way to see how things get interpreted:
/solr/select?q=+bob&wt=ruby&indent=on
You'll see the params in the responseHeader:
'q'=>' bob'
6. I'm compelled to list both the non-escaped format and the escaped
format above because I can not help thinking that the + may
cause problems :)
It causes confusion, that's for sure. We do have to be careful to
note whether an example is an encoded URL, or whether its a loose
example to keep from cluttering it up with encoded characters.
