Dynamic field searching with edismax

[adityab <ad...@yahoo.com>]

We have a search query which we want to configure in Solrconfig.xml and lock
down in such a way that user will just pass the keyword e.g
q=facebook&qf=title.0&defType=edismax

We have a dynamic field title.* for each language. During search the "*" is
replaced with login user language and hence need to perform search on
q=keyword&df=title.<userlangId>

is there way in solr query to substitute variable in fieldName dynamically.
so we can configure solrconfig.xml with 
<str name="qf">title.${ul}</str>

and client can pass the value of ul in http request like
http://../solr/select/q=keyword&ul=1&defType=edismax

we want to restrict user to search on only one dynamic field. 

thanks

thanks Erick,

looks like i need to generate some part of the query in Application layer to
handle this.

Not sure it would work in your case, but see "parameter dereferencing"
here: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/LocalParams. I rather doubt this works
with field names, but it's the closest thing I see.

But it seems like you'd do this in the application layer when you construct
the link for display...

Best
Erick
