How can I get Solr-Cell to extract to multi-valued fields?

[Mark Roberts <ma...@red-gate.com>]

Hi,

I have a schema with a multivalued field like so:

<field name="product" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="true"/>

I am uploading html documents to the Solr extraction handler which contain meta in the head, like so:

<meta name="product" content="firstproduct" />
<meta name="product" content="anotherproduct" />
<meta name="product" content="andanotherproduct" />

I want the extraction handler to map each of these pieces of meta onto the product field, however, there seems to be a problem - only the last item "andanotherproduct" is mapped, the first seem to be ignored.

It does work, however, if I pass the values as literals in the query string (e.g. literal.product=firstproduct&literal.product=anotherproduct&literal.product=andanotherproduct)

I've tried the release version 1.4 of solr and a recent nightly build of 1.5 and neither work.

Is this a bug in Solr-cell or am I doing something wrong?

Many thanks,
Mark.

It is a bug. I just filed this. It is just a unit test that displays
the behavior.
