: Hi, I recently went through a little hell when I upgraded my Solr : servers to 3.2.0. What I didn't anticipate was that my Java SolrJ : clients depend on the server version. : : I would like to add a note about this in the SolrJ docs: : http://wiki.apache.org/solr/Solrj#Streaming_documents_for_an_update
I don't know that it really makes sense to add to that section, but if you'd like to add some mention to the "Setting the RequestWriter" section (where the binary / xml format choice is mentioned) In general i think people haven't called it out specificly on the wiki because it's not a problem that should affect most people except as an upgrade issue: and all known upgrade issues are enumerated in the CHANGES.txt for hte version where the issue arrises. Thr format change was specificly called out in the CHANGES.txt for 3.1... * The Solr JavaBin format has changed as of Solr 3.1. If you are using the JavaBin format, you will need to upgrade your SolrJ client. (SOLR-2034) -Hoss
