[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-2394) Deprecate "standard" writer type
(wt), just say "xml".
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-2394?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13015096#comment-13015096 ]
David Smiley commented on SOLR-2394:
------------------------------------
I'm glad you are/were totally in favor of this Hoss because, yes, I was simply talking about putting "xml" as the value in the web UI instead of "standard". I could have sworn this was going to get into 3.1 but it did not :-( Can someone commit this trivial change so it is not forgotten in the next release?

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: web gui
> Affects Versions: 1.4.1
> Reporter: David Smiley
> Priority: Minor

> I think the "standard" writer type being aliased to "xml" is unnecessary and not clear. In the full interface screen, imagine you're new to Solr and you look at the "output type" and you see "standard". What does that mean? "xml" is pretty clear.
> Assuming it's agreed that "standard" isn't of any value, I suggest that it not necessarily go away (due to backwards compatibility) but that it's existence is removed from the full interface screen, replaced with "xml". Furthermore, a picker list would be a better GUI element since there are a small limited fixed number of them.
> Perhaps this small UI change can be considered for 3.1. I'll write a small patch if there's agreement on the idea.
