Hi, I have been using nightly builds of Solr 1.3 with SolrJ for some time now. I upgraded the Solr jars from the 14-Aug nightly and my program would not compile. I found that SolrCore constructor needed a new parameter CoreDescriptor. I passed null and it worked fine.
I then upgraded to the Solr jars from the 20th-Aug nightly and it started throwing NullPointerExceptions. My guess is that the addition of the method SolrCore.getStatistics() which has the line "lst.add("aliases", getCoreDescriptor().getCoreContainer().getCoreNames(this));" throws the NPE. I searched the wiki and there is no mention of CoreDescriptor there. Could somebody please explain what CoreDescriptor is all about and how it is supposed to be used? Thanks, Nikhil
