Protip in New Function Designer - Reference Filter is -Case Sensitive-

[klincecum (Kevin Lincecum)]

Maybe result of Linux migration

Possibly an oversight, but could be fixed easily.

I looked into the code for it, and Epicor had this line in the ProcessDirectory method:

foreach (FileInfo f in directoryInfo.EnumerateFiles(this.fileFilter, SearchOption.TopDirectoryOnly))

Change it to this, and we’re golden.

var options = new EnumerationOptions
{
    MatchCasing = MatchCasing.CaseInsensitive,
    RecurseSubdirectories = false
};

foreach (FileInfo f in directoryInfo.EnumerateFiles(this.fileFilter, options))

So if whoever is responsible wants to make the fix.. there it is..

In the meantime, I made a little BPM to improve the situation.

EDIT: Made a better, faster version!

References Speedup For Kinetic V2! - Case sensitive AND blazing fast

Ok guys, my buds and I were bitching about the case sensitivity in the references dialog in the new BPM and Function Apps. We don’t like it, and some of us want all the references returned with no paging. So I solved it here: And then @Olga gave me some light ribbing because mine is slower: Well, I couldn’t stand it, so I made another one. I wrote it, then had AI clean it, then I cleaned it up, and eventually I ended up with this: This is a pre-processing BPM on Ice.BO.BpMethod.GetAvail…

The below works well, but the edit I posted works better.

Pre-Processing on Ice.BO.BpMethod.GetAvailableReferencesWithFilter

CallService<Ice.Contracts.BpMethodSvcContract>(bpm =>
{
    var refs = bpm.GetAvailableReferences(referenceGroup);

    result = refs.Where(x => x.Name.Contains(filter, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)).ToList();

});

MarkCallCompleted();

Pros:

• This will bypass the paging stuff, and return all references… @josecgomez should like that
• It will also do the filtering case insensitive.

Cons

• It is a little slower.
