[jira] Commented: (SOLR-236) Field collapsing

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-236?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12978012#action_12978012 ] 

Ron Veenstra commented on SOLR-236:
-----------------------------------

I have also been getting a null pointer exception:
message null java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.solr.search.fieldcollapse.NonAdjacentDocumentCollapser$PredefinedScorer.docID(NonAdjacentDocumentCollapser.java:397)

The error is repeatable for a given search term when sorted by "score desc," followed by any other field. It seems to crop up whenever there is only one result that should be returned in the collapsed field group, but does not happen for every possible query where this is the case (leading me to believe something else is at work).  Changing the sort order to anything else (moving score to second, or omitting a second field) eliminates the error.  This was the simple solution for my problem, but wanted to post this in case any of the information proved useful.

Using Solr 1.4.1 with SOLR-236-1_4_1-paging-totals-working.patch

> This patch include a new feature called "Field collapsing".
> "Used in order to collapse a group of results with similar value for a given field to a single entry in the result set. Site collapsing is a special case of this, where all results for a given web site is collapsed into one or two entries in the result set, typically with an associated "more documents from this site" link. See also Duplicate detection."
> http://www.fastsearch.com/glossary.aspx?m=48&amid=299
> The implementation add 3 new query parameters (SolrParams):
> "collapse.field" to choose the field used to group results
> "collapse.type" normal (default value) or adjacent
> "collapse.max" to select how many continuous results are allowed before collapsing
> TODO (in progress):
> - More documentation (on source code)
> - Test cases
> Two patches:
> - "field_collapsing.patch" for current development version
> - "field_collapsing_1.1.0.patch" for Solr-1.1.0
> P.S.: Feedback and misspelling correction are welcome ;-)
