[Changing subject accordingly ] . Thanks Noble.
I grabbed one of the nightlies at - http://people.apache.org/builds/lucene/solr/nightly/ . I could not find the DataImportHandler in the same. May be I am missing something about the sources of DataImportHandler. Can somebody suggest on where to find the same.
