I guess I'm still confused on how to use the Binary response format.
I was looking for examples of SolrJ consumers of the response object, but
didn't find anything.
The only example I see listed on the documentation is uses the
XMLResponseParser as follows (excerpt):
CommonHttpSolrServer server = new CommonsHttpSolrServer(url);
Server.setParser(new XMLResponseParser());
SolrQuery query = new SolrQuery();
Query.setQuery("*:*");
QueryResponse rsp = server.query(query);
SolrDocumentList docs = rsp.getResults();
If I use a Binary format instead, do I still use the same steps to extract
the data?
thanks

From what I understand you don't have to select a thing, the SolrCore would
detect SolrJ and do it automatically(?) ...
44. SOLR-486: Binary response format, faster and smaller
than XML and JSON response formats (use wt=javabin).
BinaryResponseParser for utilizing the binary format via SolrJ
and is now the default.
