Shalin Shekhar Mangar commented on SOLR-599:
--------------------------------------------

With SOLR-865 coming in, we can use binary format for both searching and 
indexing. The solr-commons jar has already been removed and merged with the 
solrj jar. I think a lightweight client makes sense once again. The only gotcha 
is that we require slf4j as a dependency.

> SolrJ provides a SolrServer implementation backed by commons-httpclient which 
> introduces many dependency jars (commons-codec, commons-io and 
> commons-logging). Apart from that SolrJ also uses StAX API for XML parsing 
> which introduces dependencies like stax-api, stax and stax-utils.
> This enhancement will add a SolrServer implementation backed by 
> java.net.HttpUrlConnection and will use BinaryResponseParser as the default 
> response parser. Using this basic implementation out of the box would require 
> no dependencies on either commons-httpclient or StAX. The only dependency 
> would be on solr-commons making this a very lightweight and distribution 
> friendly Java client for Solr.
