FolksSearchView: folks Reference Manual

## FolksSearchView FolksSearchView — A view of FolksIndividuals which match a given FolksQuery. |

## Types and Values

#define | FOLKS_TYPE_SEARCH_VIEW
struct | FolksSearchView
struct | FolksSearchViewClass

## Description

The search view supports ‘live’ and ‘snapshot’ search results. Live results will continue to update over a long period of time as persona stores go online and offline or individuals are edited so they start or stop matching the FolksQuery.

For a shell search provider, for example, snapshot results are appropriate. For a search in a contacts UI, live results are more appropriate as they will update over time as other edits are made in the application.

In both cases, "individuals" is guaranteed to be correct after ``folks_search_view_prepare()`` finishes.

For live results, continue listening to the "individuals-changed-detailed" signal.
