Code Sample:Test of Search using Java API

This example does a number of things:

• It defines a search method on the Orders object, and uses the Unit Test Framework to execute it.
• It gets all fields in searchRecords or getRecord, using the "*" wildcard.

package com.platform.demo.test;

import com.platform.api.*;

public class SearchTest
{
  public String searchOrders() throws Exception {
  
    Result result = Functions.searchRecords("Order", "*", "");
       //Toss the exception, if one occurs
    
    int resultCode = result.getCode();
    if (resultCode < 0)
    {
        // Some error happened.
        String msg = "Error during search";
        Functions.debug(msg + ":\n" + result.getMessage());  // Log details
        Functions.throwError(msg + ".");                     // Error dialog
        return("");
    }
    else if(resultCode == 0)
    {
        // No records found. Take action accordingly
        Functions.throwError("No results returned from search");
        return("");
    }
    else
    {
        //Records retrieved successfully
        ParametersIterator iterator = result.getIterator();
        boolean first_time = true;
        while(iterator.hasNext())
        {
            Parameters params = iterator.next();
            String num= params.get("order_number");
        
            // List the fields present in the params object
            if (first_time) {
                for (Object key : params.keySet() ) {
            	   Functions.debug(""+key);
                }
                first_time = false;
            }
                    
            // Use the Lookup value in related_to_Customer to get customer info
            String customerID = params.get("related_to_Customer");
            Result customer = 
        	Functions.getRecord("Customer", "*", customerID);
            String company = customer.getParameters().get("customer_name");
        
            // Echo order info
            Functions.debug("Order #" +  num + " for " + company);       
        }        
        //Result code is the #of records found.
        return ""+resultCode;
    }
  }   
  
  @TestMethod
  public void runSearchOrders() throws Exception {
     String record_count = searchOrders();
     RunTest.assertEquals(record_count, "6");
  }
