Re: Documentation?

I read a bit "Lucene in action" with a lot of nice example and was very optimistic to use solr, but i was really disappointed when I was looking for documentation for solr - even the javadoc is very poor, no explanation of the framework, about why there are so many different classes with similar n

Markus, A couple of code pointers for you: * QueryComponent - this is where results are generated, it uses a SortSpec from the QParser. * QParser#getSort - creating a custom QParser you'll be able to wire in your own custom sort You can write your own QParserPlugin and QParser, and c
