You may say that the String in the constructor is "meant to be query syntax", nothing in the Javadoc says anything about the expected syntax. Since there is also a method to set the query, it seemed reasonable to expect that it would take the output of the toString method. (or some other serialization method) https://lucene.apache.org/solr/6_6_0/solr-solrj/org/apache/solr/client/solrj/SolrQuery.html#SolrQuery-java.lang.String-
So how would a user play back logged queries? This seems like an important use case. I can parse the toString output, It seems like the constructor should be able to take it. If not a constructor and toString, methods, I don't see methods to serialize and deserialize the query Being able to write the complete query to a log is important, but we also want to be able to read the log and submit the query to solr. Being able to playback the logs allows us to trouble shoot search issues on our site. It also provides a way to create load tests. Yes I can and am going to create this functionality, it's not that complicated, but I don't think it's unreasonable to think that the existing API should handle it.
