Use of getSelectValue()
It's my understanding that GetSelectValue() can be used to solve the following:
1) Get all select values in a specific list associated with a record. For example, return a list of all partners for a specific customer as follows:
GetSelectValueField selectField = new GetSelectValueField(); selectField.setFieldType(GetSelectValueType.customer_partner); selectField.setSearchCriteria(""); port.getSelectValue(selectField); 2) Used to get a specific select value in a specific list associated with a record. For example, return a specific partner for a specific customer as follows:
GetSelectValueField selectField = new GetSelectValueField(); selectField.setFieldType(GetSelectValueType.customer_partner); selectField.setSearchCriteria("CC165"); port.getSelectValue(selectField); Assuming that #2 is an intended use of the API, the problem with it is that the search is performed using a "starts with" or "contains" criteria, and is not an exact match. If I had partner records with values CC165, CC16521, and CC165000, it returns all three records, which in my mind is not the intent of the call.
