Hi

I wondering if the java client support multiple sub aggregation on same  
level :

for example how to translate this to java api :  
by\_city and by\_language is count aggregation on same level.

{  
"aggs": {  
"by\_gender": {  
"terms": {  
"field": "gender",  
"size": 10  
},  
"aggs": {  
"by\_city": {  
"terms": {  
"field": "city",  
"size": 3  
}  
},  
"by\_language": {  
"terms": {  
"field": "gender",  
"size": 1  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}

[solved]

here is the solution:  
AggregationBuilders.terms("by\_gender").field("gende").size(10).

subAggregation(AggregationBuilders.terms("by\_city").field("city")).

subAggregation(AggregationBuilders.terms("by\_language").field("language"));
