public class PIASearchPanelBean
extends PIAComponentCollectionBean
implements PIASearch, Serializable

Controller class for the generic search component. A global step search is used and the data is sent to interested listeners (if remote listeners exist) or back to the client incrementally. This controller uses a complex search, so you can search with any field combination (unlike the regular admin).
Because this uses a complex search, it needs to know what storable classes to search in. It currently looks in /account, /payinfo/cc, and /services. Additional code will need to be added if you add search criteria to the panel that falls outside these known classes. Adding additional fields from the /account class should be ok. But even adding additional fields from /payinfo/cc or /services may require additional tweaks to this code. We hope to make it more flexible as we move forward.

startSearch

public PModelHandle[] startSearch(PModelHandle[] criteria)
                           throws RemoteException

This method is meant for the backward compatibility. If you override this method and need to access mSecConn, make sure setSecondaryConnection is called first to initialize mSecConn.

Specified by:

startSearch in interface PIASearch

Parameters:

criteria - the search arguments

Returns:

the first set of search results

Throws:

RemoteException - if anything goes wrong

startSearch

public PModelHandle[] startSearch(PModelHandle[] criteria,
 Vector assClasses)
                           throws RemoteException

This method initializes the connection from the connection pool and starts the search. The same connection must be used throughout the step search cycle. The connection should be returned to the connection pool when the search is completed. If you override this method and need to access mSecConn, make sure setSecondaryConnection is called first to initialize mSecConn. Any time this method throws an exception or does not obtain results, use unsetSecondaryConnection to add the connection back to the pool.

Specified by:

startSearch in interface PIASearch

Parameters:

criteria - the search arguments

assClasses - the Portal storable class names associated with the search arguments

Returns:

the first set of search results

Throws:

RemoteException - if anything goes wrong

getResultsBatch

public PModelHandle[] getResultsBatch()
                               throws RemoteException

This method gets the next result set from the step search. It uses the connection that was initialized when the search was started. The same connection must be used throughout the step search cycle. The connection should be returned to the connection pool when the search is completed. If you override this method and need to access mSecConn, it should have already been initialized by the startSearch method.

Specified by:

getResultsBatch in interface PIASearch

Returns:

the next set of search results

Throws:

RemoteException - if anything goes wrong

endSearch

public void endSearch()
               throws RemoteException

This method ends the step search. It uses the connection that was initialized when the search was started. The same connection must be used throughout the step search cycle. The connection should be returned to the connection pool when the search is completed. If you override this method and need to access mSecConn, it should have already been initialized by the startSearch method.

Specified by:

endSearch in interface PIASearch

Throws:

RemoteException - if anything goes wrong

setDesiredResults

public void setDesiredResults(String[] results)
                       throws RemoteException

Specified by:

setDesiredResults in interface PIASearch

Throws:

RemoteException

getDesiredResults

public String[] getDesiredResults()
                           throws RemoteException

Specified by:

getDesiredResults in interface PIASearch

Throws:

RemoteException

closeConnection

public void closeConnection()
                     throws RemoteException

Close the secondary connection(s) created for the purpose of searching. Note that with the current implementation this method should be called only when the client is about to exit.

Specified by:

closeConnection in interface PIASearch

Throws:

RemoteException

setupSearch

protected void setupSearch(String sClass,
 String[] res,
 PModelHandle[] argV,
 Vector assClasses)
                    throws RemoteException

Generic search setup If you override this class, make sure mSecConn has been initialized. Normally mSecConn is initialized in startSearch before this method is called. If you override or make modifications to this method, be aware of the following. Any time this method throws an exception, use unsetSecondaryConnection to add the connection back to the pool.

Parameters:

sClass - the storable class name which is being sought

res - the fields to be returned in the results

argV - the search arguments

assClasses - the Portal storable class names associated with the search arguments

Throws:

RemoteException - if anything goes wrong

fireResultsEvent

protected void fireResultsEvent(PModelHandle[] out)

handleDistributeToListener

protected void handleDistributeToListener(Object listener,
 EventObject evt)

Description copied from class: PControllerImpl

Called by distributeEventToListeners to pass an event to specific listener methods. When overriding this method, be sure to pass calls for unknown listener classes to the parent controller to handle other types of event objects.

Overrides:

handleDistributeToListener in class PControllerImpl

Parameters:

listener - the listener to call a method for

evt - the event object to distribute

mungeStr

protected boolean mungeStr(FList fl,
 Field fld)

 Field fld)
                                               throws EBufException

This method finds out whether the CSR entered an exact string or a string with wild card characters. Due to timesten limitation of not supporting any function or subquery after LIKE operator in the SQL query, this method also converts all the entered search criteria values to lowercase for non-canon fields.

Parameters:

fl -

fld -

Returns:

Throws:

EBufException

isCanonField

protected boolean isCanonField(FList fl,
 Field fld)
                        throws EBufException

setSecondaryConnection

protected static void setSecondaryConnection(PIASearchPanelBean bean)
                                      throws RemoteException

Take a connection from the connection pool and set it as the secondary connection on the specified bean. The bean instance should always call this method before accessing mSecConn.

Parameters:

bean - the bean on which to set the secondary connection

Throws:

RemoteException

unsetSecondaryConnection

protected static void unsetSecondaryConnection(PIASearchPanelBean bean)

Take the secondary connection on the specified bean and add it back to the connection pool. Set the secondary connection on the specified bean to null. The bean instance should always call this method when the secondary connection (mSecConn) is no longer needed.

Parameters:

bean - the bean from which to unset the secondary connection
