Thanks Eric! So that will mean another call will be definitely required to SOLR with the facets, before the results can be send back (with the facet fields being derived traversing through the response).
I was basically checking on whether in the "process" method (I believe results will be accessed in the process method), we can dynamically generate facets after traversing through the results and identifying the fields for faceting, using some aggregation function or so, without having to make another call using facet=on&facet.field=<field_name>, before the response is send back to the user.
