Erik Hatcher commented on SOLR-116:
-----------------------------------

The initial example was from an older example index.  From trunk, the response 
is this:

{'responseHeader'=>{'status'=>0,'QTime'=>2},'fields'=>{'includes'=>'text','cat'=>'text_ws','alphaNameSort'=>'alphaOnlySort','id'=>'string','text'=>'text','manu_exact'=>'string','features'=>'text','price'=>'sfloat','incubationdate_dt'=>'date','timestamp'=>'date','sku'=>'textTight','name'=>'text','nameSort'=>'string','manu'=>'text','weight'=>'sfloat','inStock'=>'boolean','popularity'=>'sint'}}

incubationdate_dt is a dynamic field, and thus could not be gleaned from simply 
reading schema.xml.

> StructureRequestHandler - allowing client to discover all fields in the index

> This request handler returns all fields and their type.  In Ruby format 
> (&wt=ruby) the results, for the example index, look like this currently:
> {'responseHeader'=>{'status'=>0,'QTime'=>1},'fields'=>{'cat'=>'text_ws','includes'=>'text','id'=>'string','text'=>'text','price'=>'sfloat','features'=>'text','manu_exact'=>'string','manu'=>'text','name'=>'text','sku'=>'textTight','inStock'=>'boolean','popularity'=>'sint','weight'=>'sfloat'}}
> A client wanting to introspect Solr could combine the actual fields and their 
> types with parsing of schema.xml to glean a lot and dynamically configure 
> based on what is inside an index.  Should more information per field be 
> returned, or is simply the type name sufficient?   What else is desirable for 
> this request handler?
