: It would be useful to have a solr setting for stripping the dynamic field : suffix/prefix on index field name to get back the original field name. Does : it make sense?
sorry, i'm really not following this talk of "stripping" the dynamic field name to get back the "original" field name ... what does that mean? it seems like what you are describing is having a schema consisting entirely of dynamic fields where teh suffix determines hte datatype, but you don't wnat to have to use that suffix when interacting with Solr ... but if i've got two dynamicFields "*_i" and "*_s" and you refer to "user" in your query, how is Solr suppose to know wether you want "user_i" or "user_s" If you want people do be able to refer to the field "user" and you want it to be an integer field, why not definie it as an explicit field instead of a dynamic field? -Hoss
