  One of the powerful features of Lucene is that you don't have to pre-define every field when you first create your index.  Even though Solr provides strong datatyping for fields, it still preserves that flexibility using "Dynamic Fields".  Using `<dynamicField>` declarations, you can create field rules that Solr will use to understand what datatype should be used whenever it is given a field name that is not explicitly defined, but matches a prefix or suffix used in a dynamicField.  
  
  For example the following dynamic field declaration tells Solr that whenever it sees a field name ending in "_i" which is not an explicitly defined field, then it should dynamically create an integer field with that name...
