> some sample code for our users that shows them how to query Solr

- I believe you don't have to use SolrJ to query Solr; SolrJ can query and
parse XML response from server; if your clients can use raw URL as a query
and raw XML (JSON etc.) as a response - you don't need SolrJ.

To  pass cookie with SolrJ you need modify source code... or may be you can
get access to core HttpClient objects via some configuration (singleton) and
pass default per-client cookie without altering SOLR

Subject: Passing a Cookie in SolrJ

Hi All,

The project I am working on is using Solr and OpenSSO (Sun's single sign on
service). I need to write some sample code for our users that shows them how
to query Solr and I would just like to point them to the SolrJ documentation
but I can't see an easy way to be able to pass a cookie with the request.
The cookie is needed to be able to get through the SSO layer but will just
be ignored by Solr. I see that you are using Apache Commons Http Client and
with that I would be able to write the cookie if I had access to the
HttpMethod being used (GetMethod or PostMethod). However, I can not find an
easy way to get access to this with SolrJ and thought I would ask before
rewriting a simple example using only an ApacheHttpClient without the SolJ
library. Thanks in advance for any pointers you may have.

Thanks,
Paul Ramirez
