Solr 5

[James]

I think I have Sunspot and Solr 5 chatting together happily but I did have to update the schema.xml because Solr deprecated some of the field types.  Specifically the DateField and the Sortable fields.  So where it was this:

    <fieldType name="date" class="solr.DateField" omitNorms="true"/>

    <!-- *** This fieldType is used by Sunspot! *** -->

    <fieldType name="sdouble" class="solr.SortableDoubleField" omitNorms="true"/>

    <!-- *** This fieldType is used by Sunspot! *** -->

    <fieldType name="sfloat" class="solr.SortableFloatField" omitNorms="true"/>

    <!-- *** This fieldType is used by Sunspot! *** -->

    <fieldType name="sint" class="solr.SortableIntField" omitNorms="true"/>

    <!-- *** This fieldType is used by Sunspot! *** -->

    <fieldType name="slong" class="solr.SortableLongField" omitNorms="true"/>

I have changed it to this:

    <fieldType name="date" class="solr.TrieDateField" omitNorms="true"/>

    <!-- *** This fieldType is used by Sunspot! *** -->

    <fieldType name="sdouble" class="solr.TrieDoubleField" omitNorms="true"/>

    <!-- *** This fieldType is used by Sunspot! *** -->

    <fieldType name="sfloat" class="solr.TrieFloatField" omitNorms="true"/>

    <!-- *** This fieldType is used by Sunspot! *** -->

    <fieldType name="sint" class="solr.TrieIntField" omitNorms="true"/>

    <!-- *** This fieldType is used by Sunspot! *** -->

    <fieldType name="slong" class="solr.TrieLongField" omitNorms="true"/>

Wherever the docs said a field was deprecated, I changed it to the replacement field the documentation pointed me to.

I've reindexed the data set and confirmed that things seem to work as expected but I haven't gone in depth.  Can I get a double check from the group that those changes seem sensible and should work without hiccups?

These types should also be backwards compatible with Solr 4, maybe that's worth testing as well. @robsears?
