: the response. When I add "&mm=50%25" to the URL in my browser (%25 being the : URL encoding for the percent symbol), the response changes the mm value to : "50%" as expected, overriding the value in solrconfig.xml. I have not tried
that is the value of hte mm param, but elisabeth seems to be asking about the actually numeric value computed from the mm param (ie: if there are 4 clauses, and mm=50%, then the final value is "2") it's not entirely clear to me *how* this value would be useful to clients, so there may be an XY Problem here we should discuss -- but more specificly there is no generic way that we could add the final computed mm value in the response, since there is no garuntee that there will be only one final computed value. dismax is a QParser, and using nested QParsers there could be multiple instances of dismax used in a single request, with distinct mm values computed for each of them. But like i said: there may be an XY Problem here ... what is the end goal? how would you use this value if you had it? https://people.apache.org/~hossman/#xyproblem XY Problem Your question appears to be an "XY Problem" ... that is: you are dealing with "X", you are assuming "Y" will help you, and you are asking about "Y" without giving more details about the "X" so that we can understand the full issue. Perhaps the best solution doesn't involve "Y" at all? See Also: http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=542341 -Hoss
