Jack Krupansky commented on SOLR-3534: -------------------------------------- Okay, but if df does not have a default value, then at least have it throw an exception at an early stage, like core/handler load, rather than result in queries with an empty field name that returns zero results as it does today. Although, I suppose it is possible that a particular application may intend to set df explicitly on each request and not need/want a default. But, even in that case, I think an exception should be thrown rather than accept an empty field name and silently provide zero search results. I am still in favor of "text" as the hardwired default. Isn't "text" the traditional default search field? Including in the Solr example schema. But, that said, I will certainly defer to the rest of the Solr community. > dismax and edismax should default to "df" when "qf" is absent. > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-3534 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3534 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: query parsers > Affects Versions: 4.0 > Reporter: David Smiley > Assignee: David Smiley > Priority: Minor > > The dismax and edismax query parsers should default to "df" when the "qf" > parameter is absent.
