I'm working on building a search model based on windows search in particular Dsearch sample in the following link http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=7388 under Querying folder.
The problem is, I need to make this search method as a WCF service which I need to consume in asp.net application. As I've figured out the problem is in OleDbConnection object -which connects to the indexer provider with the windows application-.
it gives IErrorInfo.GetDescription failed with E_FAIL(0x80004005) exception upon calling
OleDbDataReader.read()
My question can OleDbConnection be used with WCF services?
Code:
// Generate SQL from our parameters, converting the userQuery from AQS->WHERE clause
string sqlQuery = queryHelper.GenerateSQLFromUserQuery(userQuery);
// --- Perform the query ---
// create an OleDbConnection object which connects to the indexer provider with the windows application
System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection(queryHelper.ConnectionString);
// open it
conn.Open();
// now create an OleDB command object with the query we built above and the connection we just opened.
OleDbCommand command = new OleDbCommand(sqlQuery, conn);
// execute the command, which returns the results as an OleDbDataReader.
OleDbDataReader WDSResults = command.ExecuteReader();
while (WDSResults.Read())
{
nResults++;
// col 0 is always our path in display format
string path = WDSResults.GetString(0);
if (fScope)
{
// if it is relative to the current directory, then just show the relative part of the path
path = path.Substring(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory().Length + 1);
}
if (fDisplayContents)
{
// output the file to our WDSResult file to build the list of files for input to findstr
fileList.Add(path);
}
else
{
List<string> val = new List<string>();
// if they have a custom sort column
if ((fBare == false) && (sortCol != "System.ItemPathDisplay"))
{
// then get it
val[0] = WDSResults.GetValue(1).ToString();
// and output it
return val[0];
}
return val[0] + path;
// output the path
//Console.WriteLine(path);
}
}
WDSResults.Close();
conn.Close();
Edit: I have exactly the same query in both console application and in WCF service
CommandText = "SELECT \"System.ItemPathDisplay\" FROM \"SystemIndex\" WHERE CONTAINS(*,'\"soa*\"',1033) AND scope='file:D:\\4Project' ORDER BY System.ItemPathDisplay ASC"
CommandText = "SELECT \"System.ItemPathDisplay\" FROM \"SystemIndex\" WHERE CONTAINS(*,'\"soa*\"',1033) AND scope='file:D:\\4Project' ORDER BY System.ItemPathDisplay ASC"
