Run a query via SolrJ using Request URL

["Dickinson, Cliff" <cd...@ncaa.org>]

I'm faily new to Solr and have run into an issue that I cannot figure out how to solve.   I'm trying to implement a Save Search requirement similar to bookmarking to allow the same search to be run in the future.  Once the original search is executed from within a Spring app, I use the ClientUtils.toQueryString() to store a copy of the actual request URL that was sent to the Solr Server in a database table(if save is requested).  That part works great, but now I can't find anything in the SolrJ API that will allow me to run that query from the original URL rather than having to piece it together again via a SolrQuery object.  Is there anything out there to run from this URL or do I need to manually split it out and build the SolrQuery?

Thanks in advance for the advice!

I found this very ancient bit of code, not sure it even works anymore, but you can give it a try.  The problem isn't so much sending the request (if you've got the original query with params, you can call Solr through a plain old HTTP request), but it's parsing the response that's the tedious bit without Solrj, so the following code unmarshals the raw (binary?) response using the JavaBinCodec, and then makes a QueryResponse out of the NamedList<>.

			DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
			HttpGet get = new HttpGet(queryUrl.toURI());
			HttpResponse response1 = httpclient.execute(get);
			StatusLine statusLine = response1.getStatusLine();
			HttpEntity entity = response1.getEntity();
			InputStream content = entity.getContent();

			//NamedList<Object> namedList = (NamedList<Object>)new JavaBinCodec().unmarshal(queryUrl.openConnection().getInputStream()); 
			NamedList<Object> namedList = (NamedList<Object>)new JavaBinCodec().unmarshal(content); 
			content.close();
			
			QueryResponse resp = new QueryResponse(namedList, null);
