Customizing the result view of the advanced design search

The customization is recognized in the result view of a local and server advanced design search. You can customize the result view by displaying the criterion that was used to constitute the search result. But you can also display any other element. There is no link between the criteria from which the result was found and the elements that can be added to the result view.

About this task

Before you can customize the result view, you must have instantiated the com.ibm.pdp.maf.rpp.mafAdvancedSearchPattern extension point and coded the Java class that implements each instantiation.

You can then customize the result views of the local and server advanced design searches. These views have two display modes: the hierarchical mode and the column mode (flat mode).

Procedure

Results

The decoration and the new column are displayed in the result view.
