[jira] [Comment Edited] (SOLR-5211) updating parent as childless makes old children orphans

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5211?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16496774#comment-16496774 ]

-----------------------------------------------------------------

This what we discussed at Vegas, [~hossman]. Let's treat all docs (even childfree) parents. Here are pros, and cons:
(+)  mixing parents and childfree (not yet in tests)
(+)  overwriting childfree by parent (in tests)
(-) for those who run childfree-only index its waste index space for storing useless {{\_root_}} column, as a workaround they can enable {{<updateHandler class="solr.LegacyDirectUpdateHandler">}} (I'm not happy about this name). 
* atomic updates for parents is not there but just possible

I'd like to tweak the tests a little. Meanwhile, the questions are: 
- Are we going this way? 
- what release strategy is worth to take? eg make {{ParentAlwaysDUH2}} optional in 7.4. but default in 8.0 or turn it by default right now

> if I have parent with children in the index, I can send update omitting children. as a result old children become orphaned. 
> I suppose separate \_root_ fields makes much trouble. I propose to extend notion of uniqueKey, and let it spans across blocks that makes updates unambiguous.  
> WDYT? Do you like to see a test proves this issue?
