> Reported by Rob Casson:
> {noformat}
> indexing the example docs from 1.2, these steps work:
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/update --data-binary
> '<delete><query>solr</query></delete>' -H 'Content-type:text/xml;
> charset=utf-8'
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/update --data-binary '<optimize />' -H
> 'Content-type:text/xml; charset=utf-8'
> but if i reindex, and change the delete query to a negative, the
> non-'solr' docs don't get deleted:
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/update --data-binary
> '<delete><query>-solr</query></delete>' -H 'Content-type:text/xml;
> charset=utf-8'
> curl http://localhost:8983/solr/update --data-binary '<optimize />' -H
> 'Content-type:text/xml; charset=utf-8'
> And detailed by Hoss with a workaround:
> the delete by query does "the 
> right thing" with a purely negative query ... when the customization was 
> added to Solr to support pure negative queries it was done at the 
> SolrIndexSearcher level when computing DocSets, but delete by query uses a 
> lower level method passing in a HitCOllector.
> the work arround is to include *:* in yoru query ...
>    <delete><query>*:* -solr</query></delete>
> ... if/when this is fixed 
> in Solr that's esentally what solr will do under the covers.
