Configuring Sun Master Indexes (Repository)

Configuring the EDM Search Results Page (Repository)

The Search Results page displays a list of records returned from a search. The same Search Results page appears for all simple search pages. You can configure the number of records to display at one time in the results list and the fields to display in the list. Fields in the field-ref elements are named by their object name and then the field name; for example, Person.LastName or Phone.PhoneNumber.

ProcedureTo Configure the Search Results Page

  1. In the Projects window, expand the Configuration node in the project you want to modify, and then double-click the Enterprise Data Manager file.

    The file opens in the NetBeans XML editor.

  2. Scroll to the page-definition element in the gui-definition element, and then to the eo-search element.

  3. In the search-result-list-page element, do any of the following:

    • To modify the number of records displayed on the search results page at one time, change the value of the item-per-page element.

      For example:


         <item-per-page>15</item-per-page>

    • To specify a maximum number of records to return from a search, change the value of the max-result-size element.

      For example:


         <max-result-size>100</max-result-size>

    • To add a new field to the results list, create and name a new field-ref element.

      For example:


         <field-ref>Person.LastName</field-ref>

    • To modify a field in the results list, change the value of the appropriate field-ref element.

      For example:


         <field-ref>Person.FirstName</field-ref>

    • To delete a field from the results list, delete all text between and including the field-ref tags defining the field to be deleted.

      For example, to delete the City field from the following list, delete the boldface text.


         <search-result-list-page>
      <item-per-page>10</item-per-page>
      <field-ref>Person.LastName</field-ref>
      <field-ref>Person.FirstName</field-ref>
      <field-ref>Address.AddressLine1</field-ref>
      <field-ref>Address.City</field-ref>
   </search-result-list-page>

  4. Save and close the file.
