[jira] [Commented] (CONNECTORS-1324) Not all SharePoint Metadata Fields are returned - 2

["Karl Wright (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1324?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15341779#comment-15341779 ] 

Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-1324:
-----------------------------------------

The logic uses the display name if it is present, or the value name if it is not.  Why would this only work if fields have the same name and display name?

In your example above, you should be seeing the data included under the name "Task name".  This has a space in it so you may well have overlooked it for that reason.

And, yes, we really *do* want to use the display name if it is present.

> Hello Karl,
> This is a follow up ticket for [1284|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1284].
> There is still a problem with getting meta-data from sharepoint lists.
> E.g. I'm missing the "title" and "description" fields in the result documents.
> Let's take the "title" field from a list document:
> {code:xml|title=DEBUG: SharePoint: getFieldList xml response:}
> ...
>     <ns1:Field ID="{fa564e0f-0c70-4ab9-b863-0177e6ddd247}" Type="Text" Name="Title"
>     DisplayName="Task Name" Required="TRUE" SourceID="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/v3"
>     StaticName="Title" FromBaseType="TRUE" Sealed="TRUE" ColName="nvarchar1" />
> ...
> {code}
> The field {{Name}} is the internal (technical) field name, and {{DisplayName}} is the frontend (user-friendly) name. 
> The connector maps {{Name}} to {{DisplayName}} when it is preparing the request:
> {code:java|title=SharePointRepository.java}
>             for (String field : fieldNames.keySet())
>             {
>               String value = fieldNames.get(field);
>               fields[j++] = (value==null)?field:value;
> {code}
> Changing the last two lines to:
> {code:java}
>               fields[j++] = field;
> {code}
> solves the problem.
> I doubt, the {{DisplayName}} should be used at all, as it can contain non-ascii chars, e.g.:
> {code:xml}
> ...
> <ns1:Field ID="{fa564e0f-0c70-4ab9-b863-0177e6ddd247}" Type="Text" Name="Title" DisplayName="&#xDC;berschrift" ...
> {code}
> Currently, only fields with the same Name/DisplayName values can be indexed.
> Could you please look into this?
> Thank you!
