Re: How are multivalued fields used?
Gene, I think you can think of multi-valued fields as just regular fields with multiple values concatenated together. There is nothing super magical about them.

You add multiple fields with the same name to a document, say keywords. solr lucene seach If have configured the the field keyword in the index to be multivalued, then solr will dump the values of each field in your document into the field keywords. When you request that solr return the value in the field keywords, then you get a coma seperated list of the keywords.

You cannot remove a field from a document, documents are read only, you have to reindex the document with the same unique id and the new information. > Based on > http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FieldOptionsByUseCase, it says to use > it to "add multiple values, maintaining order " Is the order for > indexing/searching or for storing/returning? Not sure, but I would assume that the values are stored in the field in the order that the fields are specified in the document. Brian
How are multivalued fields used?
How does one use of this field type. Forums, wiki, Lucene in Action, all coming up empty. If there's a doc somewhere please point me there. I use pysolr to index. But, that's not a requirement. I'm not sure how one adds multivalues to a document. And once added, if you want to remove one how do you specify? Based on http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FieldOptionsByUseCase, it says to use it to "add multiple values, maintaining order " Is the order for indexing/searching or for storing/returning? thanks gene
