Class PersonSearch

java.lang.Object
  com.ibm.itim.dataservices.model.domain.PersonSearch

public class PersonSearch
extends java.lang.Object

Provides an interface for searching for people. This interface is supplied to clients so that they can search in a more direct manner without having to traverse data model relationships to retrieve people. It should be noted that, like all other classes in the com.ibm.itim.dataservices package and its sub-packages, this class is not remote able. It should be used from local customization code such as JavaScript extensions, but not from code deployed outside the platform. It should also be noted that, like all other search classes in the com.ibm.itim.dataservices package and its sub-packages, this search class does not check ACIs to filter out results. A remote able equivalent that performs ACI checking is available in the com.ibm.itim.apps.identity.PersonManager class.
