Thanks, Jeff. Luke will work , but it's a GUI - unless they expose an API that I can call. What I need is a way to get the informatiom as a client call to a SolrJ SolrServer object. We want to be able to get this info whether we are running Solr embedded or as a Web service. I guess I could write a request handler to return this info, but I like to see what's the "right" way to do this.

However, it does contain information like fields and type. -- Jeff Newburn Software Engineer, Zappos.com jnewb...@zappos.com - 702-943-7562 > From: "Fink, Clayton R." <clayton.f...@jhuapl.edu> > Reply-To: <solr-user@lucene.apache.org> > Date: Thu, 2 Apr 2009 17:29:38 -0400 > To: "solr-user@lucene.apache.org" <solr-user@lucene.apache.org> > Subject: Remote Access To Schema Data > > Hi: > > I want to get a list of the fields and field types for an index deployed on a > Solr server (over HTTP or embedded).
