Re: [platform-search-dev] NewSearchUI - results not showing

[David Watkins <David_Watkins@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Markus,
Thanks for your suggestions. Unfortunately, it's still not
working :(

I tried setting the code back to your example and I also
ensured the search was the same object (based on the code from
the NLSSearchQuery).

I thought it may have something to do with
'ISearchQuery::canRunInBackground()' so I forced that
method to return false.  Unfortunately none of this worked and
I still have the same problem - namely the results don't show
until I access them from the search history.

Any other ideas?  I have a feeling it's something missing from the
plugin.xml, other than registering the result page is there anything
else I have to do in terms of initialisation.  I added a subsequent
call to 'NewSearchUI.getSearchResultView().getActivePage()' and
inspected the result it was showing my 'BeanSearchResultPage' and
I could see my matches stored in it - weird!

Anyway thanks again for your help , I think I've probably forgotten
something really obvious.  Does anyone know of any simple 'all-in-one'
examples out there I can take a look at?

Cheers,
Dave Watkins
