: What's the canonical way to pass an update request to another handler? I'm : implementing a handler that has to dispatch its result to different update : handlers based on its internal processing.
I've always written my delegating RequestHandlers so that they take in the names (or paths) of the handlers they are going to delegate to as init params. the other approach i've seen is to make the delegating handler instantiate the sub-handlers directly so that it can have the exact instnaces it wants configured the way it wants them. It really comes down to what your goal is: if you wnat your code to be totlaly in conrol instantiate new instances. if you wnat the person creatining the solrconfig.xml to be in control let them tell you the name of a handler (with it's defaults/invariants configured i na way you can't control) to delegate to. -Hoss
