Cameron Pope commented on SOLR-895:
-----------------------------------

I tried moving both root entities under the same <document> element and 
specifying 'docRoot="true"' for both of them and that appears to work. Thanks.

Since I am new to Solr, please forgive me for logging what is probably not a 
bug at all. Is specifying multiple 'root' entities the envisioned way to solve 
this problem, or is it a workaround? Just curious and trying to gain a better 
understanding of the design (I noticed parts of the DataImporter assume 
multiple <Document> elements and other parts assume only one), and if so, I'd 
be happy to update the wiki to include it -- I imagine I am not the only one 
who has a database schema like this who wants to create an index with Solr. 

All in all, I have been hugely impressed with Solr and the DataImportHandler - 
both are incredible pieces of work. Thanks!

> In our system we have multiple kinds of items that need to be indexed. In the 
> database, they are represented as 'one table per concrete class'. We are 
> using the DataImportHandler to automatically create an index from our 
> database. The db-data-config.xml file that we are using contains two 
> 'Document' elements: one for each class of item that we are indexing.
> Expected behavior: the DataImportHandler imports items for each 'Document' 
> tag defined in the configuration file
> Actual behavior: the DataImportHandler stops importing it completes indexing 
> of the first document
> I am attaching a patch, with a unit test that verifies the correct behavior, 
> it should apply against the trunk without problems. I can also supply a patch 
> against the 1.3 branch if you would like.
