Hi, If I understand you correctly, you really want to be constructing SolrInputDocuments (not Lucene's Documents) and indexing those with SolrJ. I don't think there is anything in the API that can read in an XML file and convert it into a SolrInputDocuments instance, but aren't there libraries who can convert XML into Java objects and vice-versa? Maybe that could be used.
