: I'm using Solr (with multiple cores) in a Webapp and access the differnt : cores using CommonsHttpSolrServer. As I would like to know, which cores are : configured and what there status is I would like to get an instance of : CoreContainer.
CoreContainer is an internal API inside of Solr -- so you can't get access to that when talking to Solr over HTTP : The site http://wiki.apache.org/solr/CoreAdmin tells me how to interact with : the CoreAdminHandler via my browser. But I would like to get the information : provided by the STATUS action in my java application. As CoreContainer all of those commands are accessable over HTTP from any client, including SolrJ -- take a look at the CoreAdminRequest class (or you can role your own using SolrRequest and setting the request params directly) https://lucene.apache.org/solr/api/org/apache/solr/client/solrj/request/CoreAdminRequest.html -Hoss
