Hi Floyd, DocValues are useful for sorting and faceting per example.
You don't need to change nothing in your xml's, the only thing that you need to do is set the docValues=true in your field definition in the schema. If you don't want use the default implementation (all loaded in the heap), you need to add the tag <codecFactory class="solr.SchemaCodecFactory"/> in the solrconfig.xml and the docValuesFormat=true on the fieldType definition. -- Yago Riveiro Sent with Sparrow (http://www.sparrowmailapp.com/?sig) On Wednesday, November 20, 2013 at 9:38 AM, Floyd Wu wrote: > Hi there, > > I'm not fully understand what kind of usage example that DocValues can be > used? > > When I set field docValues=true, do i need to change anyhting in xml that I > sent to solr for indexing? > > Please point me. > > Thanks > > Floyd > > PS: I've googled and read lots of DocValues discussion but confused.
