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

[David Watkins <David_Watkins@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Markus,
Thanks for the pointers.  I've got it working now.  I've undoubtedly
got lots of unnecessary code in my plugin but I no longer need to
call the .internal. method.  I had an embarrasingly simple  mistake
in my elementsChanged() method, fixing that seems to have sorted
everything else out.  One thing I don't understand though is why,
if I run something in the foreground, do I need to
implement elementsChanged()?

The fact that the view displays correctly via the history would
suggest that I don't need to.  Couldn't the runQueryInForeground
simply call the internal method for me at the end of it's processing.
The fact that a single .internal. call initially got it working would
indicate a no-frills helper method could be created.  Or maybe create
a NewSearchUIForDimwits class for people like me!

Anyway, thanks again for your suggestions.  I'd have been quite lost
without your kind help.

Cheers,
Dave Watkins.
