Eric Pugh commented on SOLR-17423:
----------------------------------
I poked around RunExampleTool and bin/solr invocation of it and learned two
things:
1) The fact that SolrCLI just blindly force adds the --help option means that
commands that don't need it, like RunExampleTool, end up getting it.
2) Interesting you never actually see the existence of the "run_example" /
RunExampleTool when you do bin/solr --help. run_example is basically a special
case tool that is used by the bin/solr start -e MYEXAMPLE flag!
3) Because of 3, as long as we don't change the bin/solr start experience we
can do what we want to RunExampleTool. So saying --hostname option doesnt have
a short cut is just fine!
> CLI: Resolve -h argument conflict (help/host)

> Key: SOLR-17423
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-17423
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
> Components: cli, examples
> Affects Versions: main (10.0), 9.7
> Reporter: Christos Malliaridis
> Priority: Major
> Labels: cli
>
> At the moment RunExampleTool uses -h for providing the hostname. -h is
> commonly known for printing the help / usage. To avoid any confusion for
> beginners and improve the learnability of the CLI, we should deprecate -h in
> RunExampleTool for future 9.X releases and remove it in 10.0 (two PRs
> expected). -h should only be used for printing the help information.
> Note that -h is used via Option.builder("h") and in a raw string as "-h"
> inside RunExampleTool, and deprecation would require both to be updated.
> Please review for any documentation references as well.
> Once the conflict is resolved, the tracking table in [Solr Arguments -
> Migration
> Overview|https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ws44kN51WnGwQzOXc8KKRQ93TMgHSqIGb02MRWFel_U/edit?usp=sharing]
> can be updated.
