[Rets-dev] Supported Search Formats

[Paula OBrien]

Yes, clear as mud, isn't it?
   
  This refers to the SearchType argument of the RETS Search Transaction.  It in turn corresponds to a METADATA-RESOURCE.  The list directly following that statement in 7.1. are well-known METADATA-RESOURCES.  So, you would evaluate a server's METADATA-RESOURCES to see what Resources are available.    Basically this sentence states that a server is required to have at least one Resource available for performing searches against.
   
  That sentence is probably a good item for clarification by the errata group.

                In Section 7.1 of the 1.5 specification it is stated:
  “The server MUST support at least one type of search. The types of searches supported by the server are specified in the metadata.“
   
  What part of the metadata identifies which search formats are supported?  As a client that integrates with multiple servers, it will be necessary to identify the supported formats so I use the correct query.
