Question
I'm new to Tizen native application development and need to implement a search feature in my app.
I have about 10 records displayed on a page and want to enable searching for specific items within this native application (not a web page).
Could anyone provide guidance on how to implement this search functionality?
Answer
Problem Understanding
The user needs to implement a local search functionality within a Tizen native application to search through approximately 10 records displayed on a page.
Solution Methods
-
Using Tizen Data Types and APIs:
- For small datasets (like 10 records), you can use Tizen's basic data types and search through them directly
- Implement a simple search algorithm to filter through your records
-
Using SQLite Database:
- For more scalable solutions or larger datasets, consider using SQLite database
- Implement SQL queries to search through your records
Code Examples
Simple search implementation (for small datasets):
// Assuming you have an array of records
char* records[] = {"Record1", "Record2", "Record3", "Record4", "Record5",
"Record6", "Record7", "Record8", "Record9", "Record10"};
void search_records(const char* search_term) {
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
if (strstr(records[i], search_term) != NULL) {
// Found a match - implement your display logic here
dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, "SEARCH", "Found match: %s", records[i]);
}
}
}
Additional Tips
- For more complex search requirements, consider using Tizen's EFL data types and tools
- If your dataset grows significantly, implementing database-based search would be more efficient
- Remember to handle case sensitivity and partial matches according to your requirements
