I'm having trouble getting products to return when doing a FindByCriteria with Webservices3.asmx.. Here's an example of all I'm trying to do:

Code:

dim s as New bvWeb3.ProductSearchCriteria
s.Keyword = "whatever"

dim bvProducts() as bvWeb3.Product = bvServices.Catalog_InternalProduct_FindByCriteria(Token, s)
dim bvProduct as bvWeb3.Product

for each bvProduct in bvProducts
listbox1.items.add(bvProduct.ProductName)
next



bvWeb3 is the web reference. bvServices are bvWeb3.WebServices3. Token is defined and successfully authenticated.

This returns zero items in bvProducts(). It seems like no matter what I put into the ProductSearchCriteria, it never returns any items.

When I run this same thing, but without the ProductSearchCriteria and instead doing this: bvServices.Catalog_InteralProduct_FindAll(Token) It returns all of the products fine.

Can anyone point me in the right direction of how to figure this out? Or explain what I'm doing wrong when using the ProductSearchCriteria? Thanks in advance.

I have not looked at the ProductSearchCriteria class, but my guess is there are some other properties that you have to set. For example, if there are search ranges make sure they include all your products.

When ProductSearchCriteria is created (before I touch any properties) it looks like this:

Code:

{bvProducts.bvWeb3.ProductSearchCriteria}
CategoryId: Nothing
categoryIdField: Nothing
ChoicesAndChoiceOptions: Nothing
choicesAndChoiceOptionsField: Nothing
CustomProperties: Nothing
customPropertiesField: Nothing
InventoryStatus: NotAvailable {0}
inventoryStatusField: NotAvailable {0}
ItemsAddedInLastXDays: 0
itemsAddedInLastXDaysField: 0
Keyword: Nothing
keywordField: Nothing
KeywordIsExact: False
keywordIsExactField: False
LastXNumberOfItemsAddedToStore: 0
lastXNumberOfItemsAddedToStoreField: 0
ManufacturerId: Nothing
manufacturerIdField: Nothing
MaxPrice: 0D
maxPriceField: 0D
MinPrice: 0D
minPriceField: 0D
NotCategoryId: Nothing
notCategoryIdField: Nothing
ParentId: Nothing
parentIdField: Nothing
ProductTypeId: Nothing
productTypeIdField: Nothing
SortBy: ProductName {0}
sortByField: ProductName {0}
SortOrder: NotSet {0}
sortOrderField: NotSet {0}
SpecialProductTypeOne: NotSet {0}
specialProductTypeOneField: NotSet {0}
SpecialProductTypeTwo: NotSet {0}
specialProductTypeTwoField: NotSet {0}
Status: Active {0}
statusField: Active {0}
VendorId: Nothing
vendorIdField: Nothing


When I use the similar OrderSearchCriteria I can fill out any one thing and it will work fine, returning exactly what I ask for. But this ProductSearchCriteria just returns nothing every single time no matter how many properties I set. And I set the properties to things like MinPrice = 0 and MaxPrice = 999999.. Like designed to return everything.

Check the token after the call returns to make sure the specific call is not rejected (if it is then token.TokenRejected will be true after the call returns).

Looking at the code, you can ignore min and max price by setting them to -1. It looks like all the other fields will be ignored by default (except Status).

If it still does not work, you will have to start digging in.

Here is the Token after attempting a ProductSearch

Code:

{bvProducts.bvWeb3.AuthenticationToken}
Bvin: "91bf0c0a-3bd3-417e-a59a-6c9e58d47469"
bvinField: "91bf0c0a-3bd3-417e-a59a-6c9e58d47469"
ExpirationDate: #5/15/2009 6:15:24 PM#
expirationDateField: #5/15/2009 6:15:24 PM#
ExpirationDateUTC: #5/15/2009 10:15:24 PM#
expirationDateUTCField: #5/15/2009 10:15:24 PM#
IsExpired: False
isExpiredField: False
LastUpdated: #12:00:00 AM#
lastUpdatedField: #12:00:00 AM#
TokenRejected: False
tokenRejectedField: False
UserBvin: "dd429e5f-49c5-4221-bb0c-c69668b36ee2"
userBvinField: "dd429e5f-49c5-4221-bb0c-c69668b36ee2"


So it looks like the Token is still alright, no?

Is there anything else you know of that I can look at?

I were you I would have already jumped to the other side of the conversation. For example, create a local BVC5 site, load it in a debugger, set a break point at the inbound web service method, and then step through. Or if you can't do that, then attach SQL Profiler to the database and then inspect the stored procedure call and results. Or poke around the BVC5 web pages to find some other code that is using the product FindByCriteria method and see how it calls the method.
