When the parameter to a token filter is out of

is the proper way to fail in the init() and
crate() methods?
Should I throw an RuntimeException? Or should I
simply call SolrCore.log.severe(message)?
Is it OK for create() to return null when the
underlying Filter could be created?
You should throw a SolrException with a useful error message:
throw new SolrException( SolrException.ErrorCode.SERVER_ERROR,
"useful error here..." );
Assuming you have:
<abortOnConfigurationError>true</abortOnConfigurationError>
in solrconfig.xml, this will give you a large error for any URL (and log it)
