SolrQuery.add

[matthias walter <ma...@smeet.de>]

Hi,

I'm having problems using SolrQuery.add(String, String).

My Sample code is:
        SolrQuery anotherQuery = new SolrQuery();
        anotherQuery.add("city", cmd.getCity());

I get the following error:

request: 
http://localhost.local:8080/solr/select?city=Berlin&wt=xml&version=2.2

If I do it like that:

        SolrQuery query = new SolrQuery();
        query.setQuery("city:" + cmd.getCity() + " AND age:24");

Everything works fine.

It's not a real problem because the second version does the job, but the 
code is quite ugly.

Thanks for your help,

Matthias

This is incorrect (though admittedly confusing) use of the SolrQuery  
API.   What that does is the same as making this URL query:   ? 
city=<cmd.getCity()>

SolrQuery is-a SolrParams.
