Perhaps some people like maybe those using DIH to feed their index might not have that luxury and copyfield is the better way for them. If you have an application you can do it either way. I have done both ways in different situations.

Hi Everyone, What good is the use of copyField in Solr's schema.xml if my application can do it into the designated field? Having my application do so helps me simplify the schema.xml maintains task thus my motivation. Thanks Steve
