: Unfortunately this does not seem to work for dynamic fields - you can definiltely ask for a field that exists because of a dynamicField by name, but you can't use wildcard style patterns in the "fl" param.
: "fl=PREFIX*" does not return anything, and neither does "fl=*POSTFIX". : What seems to be missing from Solr is a removeField(FIELDNAME) method in : SolrJ, or a "fl=-FIELDNAME" query parameter to remove the fixed field. : : Is such a feature planned, or is there a workaround that I have missed? There's been a lot of discussion about it over the years, the crux of the problem is that it's hard to come up with a good way of dealing with field names using "meta characters" that doesn't make it hard for people to actaully use those metacharacters in their field names... http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FieldAliasesAndGlobsInParams -Hoss
