: What I'm trying is to parse the response for "numFound:<some number>" : and if this number is greater than the "rows" parameter, I send another : search request to Solr with a new "start" parameter. Is there a better : way to do this? Specifically, is there another way to obtain the : "numFound" rather than parsing the response stream/string?
i really don't understand your question ... how do you get any useful information from Solr unless you parse the responses to your requests? -Hoss
