DataImportHandler backwards compatibility

2009-06-11 Thread Kevin Lloyd

Hi,

I'm in the process of implementing a DataImportHandler config for Solr  
1.3 and I've hit across the Postgresql/JDBC Out Of Memory problem.  
Whilst the solution is documented on the wiki FAQ page:


http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandlerFaq

it appears that the JDBC driver parameters were implemented in  
DataImportHandler post the 1.3 release. I was wondering if it would be  
safe to take a nightly build of just the DataImportHandler contrib and  
run it against a Solr 1.3 installation?


Many thanks,

kevin

Yes, those parameters are new in 1.4 (we should note that on the wiki).

Solr 1.4 has a rollback command which 1.3 did not have. So, you'd need to
hack the DataImportHandler code to remove references to RollBackCommand. You
can use the 1.4 dih jar with 1.3 if you comment out the code in
SolrWriter.rollback method, remove the import of RollbackUpdateCommand and
recompile.

Thanks for the info. Just FYI, I've decided to retrofit the 1.3  
DataImportHandler with the JDBC driver params functionality to get us  
around the OOM error problem with as few changes as possible.

you can just drop in the new JdbcDataSource.java into the 1.3 release
(and build it) and it should be just fine.
