Ramkumar Aiyengar commented on SOLR-6926:
-----------------------------------------
I agree with Shawn that the primary purpose of ant is to be a build tool, and
hence it makes sense for {{ant server}} to just build. It's a nice convenience
to have a target to build and run for developers, and that's what run-example
does. That is *actually* running an example (calls {{solr -e techproducts
...}}) and not any server, so the name still makes sense..
> "ant example" makes no sense anymore - should be "ant server" (or refactored
> into some other compilation realted target)

> the ant target "ant example" doesn't really make any sense anymore ... that
> name was created way, way, back when "ant compile" built up the dist/solr.war
> file that people were expected to "install" and "ant example" took care of
> copying that war file into the example/jetty directory
> these days, it should probably be named something like "ant server" or
> refactored inside an existing task like "ant compile"
