After some bug tracking, we found that eZFind did not appear to be appending the commitWithin attribute to Solr <add> requests, even though the INI had been configured with DisableDirectCommits=enabled and CommitWithin set to 30 seconds.

Testing determined that the is_integer check applied to the INI value failed, since this checks variable type and it ini value is returned as a string.

Patch submitted as pull request #60:
https://github.com/ezsystems/ezfind/pull/60

Steps to reproduce

• Configure a clean eZ Publish/eZ Find/Solr configuration.
• Configure eZ Find with DisableDirectCommits/CommitWithin
• Publish an article
• Watch the STDOUT from Solr to determine when the object commits. The object will not commit unless something triggers the commit manually, even with CommitWithin set to a positive integer in the ini file.
