Hi, I originally used a Ruby Date class for my dates, but found when I set the type to solr.DateField in the solrconfig.xml, it returned a parse error. After that, I switched to Time and it worked fine.
However, I now have some dates that are out of the Time range (e.g. 1865) so Date would work better here than time. What is the best strategy here: 1. Use Dates and treat it as a solr.String; 2. Customize the Date class to output a valid solr.DateField string; or 3. Treat it as a string in ruby and handle to/from Date in my model? -- Regards, Ian Connor
