solrjs broken when used with Prototype library
----------------------------------------------
Key: SOLR-1403
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1403
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.4
Reporter: Geir Ove Grønmo
Using the Prototype javascript library in the same page as the SolrJS
javascript library does not work. It triggers the following error:
stacktrace: Line 303 of linked script
http://localhost:8080/ontopoly/solr/solrjs-1.4-dev.js
this.widgets[id].doRequest(query, start, resultsOnly);
...
The problem is that Prototype redefines the each function in the Array class.
And that does not work with the for-in loop syntax in javascript.
The fix is to change the widgets and selectionViews arrays defined in
jQuery.solrjs.Manager from arrays to proper associative arrays:
widgets : {},
...
selectionViews : {},
>From what I can see these two properties are supposed to be proper associative
>arrays anyway, and not arrays with string keys.
