bronco commented on SOLR-2817:
------------------------------

Ahhhhhaaaa! Thx for your clear explanation. I used the group.ngroups=true and 
it really shows the results as expected and I thought it would change also the 
numFound value, because these are real available documents in my case. 

Conclusion: I have to talk to the Drupal developers because its a parsing 
problem of the resultset, but didn't break that the numFound functionality? I 
mean it makes the use of the numFound value in relation with the 
group.main=true function senseless. You will always get the wrong number of 
found results / documents, whatever you try.

Also you can see in the grouping resultset without group.main=true is the 
numFound entry correct (with group.ngroups=true also without that setting in my 
case). Wouldn't it be a good idea to get another option for example 
group.main.numFound=true to overwrite the numFound values if I use the 
group.main functionality? 

I understand the group.main=true setting just as a simple output transformer.

I think it's easier for me :-) of course but also for all the projects which 
use the Apache Solr PHP Library like in my case the Drupal community. Nothing 
has to be changed and proofed and works as expected but gets another usefull 
feature out of the box and which is still easy to implement in the existing 
system! 

Of course it didn't solve all problems and still limits the usecase with the 
group.main=true setting. Specially if you extend the grouping functionality 
with more features as you say, but I think this is another thing and should be 
discussed if the new feature is available.

> I use the 3.4 brach of solr for grouping my results, but obviously there is

> This result is used by the Apache Solr Library in Drupal to calculate the

> If I not use the group.main=true setting including a facet I get in the facet
