Simple Solr POST using java

[Marshall Gunter]

Can someone please tell me why this code snippet would not add a 
document to the Solr index after a "<commit/>" was issued or
please post a snippet of Java code to add a document to the Solr index 
that includes the URL reference as a String?

Code example:
String strToAdd =
   "<add>
           <doc>
                <field name="foo">foo</field>
                <field name="bar">bar</field>
           </doc>
   </add>";

URL url = new URL("http://localhost:8080/<your solr app>/update/");

HttpURLConnection urlc = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
urlc.setRequestMethod("POST");
urlc.setDoOutput(true);

urlc.setRequestProperty("Content-type", "text/xml; charset=UTF-8");

OutputStreamWriter out = new OutputStreamWriter(urlc.getOutputStream());


out.write(strToAdd);
out.flush();
