[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-2724) Deprecate defaultSearchField and defaultOperator defined in schema.xml

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2724?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13292688#comment-13292688 ] 

Bernd Fehling commented on SOLR-2724:
-------------------------------------

So this issue is stale since March and Solr hangs now between heaven and hell which means that defaultSearchField is disabled in schema.xml and marked as deprecated, but the method getDefaultSearchFieldName() still exists and gives now no fallback to a default. This is bad and breaks pieces of Solr, like edismax and several more.
And the solution with df in the defaults of RequestHandler is also not working.

Now what, revert and release a fixed 3.6.2 or fix getDefaultSearchFieldName() and release a 3.6.2?

What about defaultOperator, is this one having/producing the same kind of problems as defaultSearchField?

> I've always been surprised to see the <defaultSearchField> element and <solrQueryParser defaultOperator="OR"/> defined in the schema.xml file since the first time I saw them.  They just seem out of place to me since they are more query parser related than schema related. But not only are they misplaced, I feel they shouldn't exist. For query parsers, we already have a "df" parameter that works just fine, and explicit field references. And the default lucene query operator should stay at OR -- if a particular query wants different behavior then use q.op or simply use "OR".
> <similarity> Seems like something better placed in solrconfig.xml than in the schema. 
> In my opinion, defaultSearchField and defaultOperator configuration elements should be deprecated in Solr 3.x and removed in Solr 4.  And <similarity> should move to solrconfig.xml. I am willing to do it, provided there is consensus on it of course.
