They work you just have to adjust ur settings. You have to edit the xml files that configure solr so that they retain the text and thus can present the context passage.
Follow these instructions and then rebuild your index and you'll have context passages: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Developing/WSe9cbe5cf462523a0-5bf1c839123792503fa-8000.html <http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Developing/WSe9cbe5cf462523a0-5bf1c839123792503fa-8000.html>I, for one, found that solr was immensely more powerful and graceful than verity once I got it grokked. Solr has a wiki that breaks down their query syntax, as well, so check it out. You can do almost anything. To really get soem of the good stuff for ecommerce and heavy category searching ( facet counts, facet queries, etc) you have to directly interact with the solr web service rather than going through cfsearch, but its generally worth it. There are some cfc's out there that do it, check ria forge.
