My document schema has fields like:
A,B,C
I am querying for documents with A="XYZ", suppose it returns 5 records
A            B               C
XYZ        Foo           cat1
XYZ        Foo           cat2
XYZ        Bar           cat1
XYZ        Bar           cat1
XYZ        Bar           cat2

out of those 10 records there may be duplicate values for B and then I am
faceting it on C,
So I get something like
Cat1:3 (Foo,Bar,Bar)
Cat2:2 (Foo,Bar)

but I want the output as
Cat1:2 (Foo,Bar)
Cat2:2 (Foo,Bar)

Is it possible to achieve the desired output with solr query?


Thanks,
VJ
