[jira] Commented: (SOLR-612) solrj should (optionally?) use POST for queries

["Yonik Seeley (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-612?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12612555#action_12612555 ] 

Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-612:
-----------------------------------

There are a number of advantages to GET I think... you can see the URLs in the servlet container logs, it's explicitly read-only, etc.
People can already use POST by setting the method on SolrRequest object.
Should we really change the default?

> Can we make solrj always send post queries (or have it be an init-able option)? 
> Jetty has some "problems" (in quotes because I don't know if it's really a problem) with long queries over GET:

> http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/lucene-solr-user/200804.mbox/%3C47F50996.80705@umich.edu%3E
> Tiny patch attached that changes it and doesn't cause an exception on long queries in Jetty w/ solrj.
