How to get all the column values from a table source

Question

Hi,
I have created one table source on a employee table and some customized attributes using global settings>search attributes.
Now these customized attributes mapped with the table columns through attribute mapping from the sorce tab.
Using doOracleSearch method i passed last parameter i.e. Integer array of customized attributes.
After execution of doOracleSearch method i am getting the results but customized attributes are not coming.
getCustomAttributes method returns null instead of some values.
Please refer following code for more info:
Integer[] fetchAttr=new Integer[2];
fetchAttr[0]=new Integer(137);
fetchAttr[1]=new Integer(138);
result =
stub.doOracleSearch("BTM",
new Integer(1),
new Integer(10),
Boolean.TRUE,
Boolean.TRUE,
group,
"en",
"en",
Boolean.TRUE,
null,
null,
fetchAttr);
ResultElement[] resElements = result.getResultElements();
for(int i = 0; i < resElements.length; i++)
System.out.println("Title : " + resElements[0].getTitle());
System.out.println("Snippet : " + resElements[0].getSnippet());
System.out.println("URL : " + resElements[0].getUrl());
System.out.println("non default : " + resElements[0].getCustomAttributes()); // it returns null here
}

Confirm the attributes you are asking SES for match those on the data source being searched. One thing to try is to simply tell SES to return all custom attributes for your search. Here is a snippet to build a list of all attribute IDs and pass them to your search...
// Create and set SOAP URL
OracleSearchService searchService = new OracleSearchService();
searchService.setSoapURL("http://myserver:7777/search/query/OracleSearch");
// Set attributes to fetch (all)
Attribute[] attributesAll = searchService.getAllAttributes("en");
ArrayList<Integer> attributeIds = new ArrayList<Integer>();
for(Attribute a: attributesAll)
attributeIds.add(a.getId());
Integer attributeIdArrayAll[] = new Integer[attributeIds.size()];
attributeIdArrayAll = attributeIds.toArray(attributeIdArrayAll);      
// Query
OracleSearchResult result = searchService.doOracleSearch("some text", ..........[other params], attributeIdArrayAll);
// Print out results
ResultElement[] resElements = result.getResultElements();
for(int i = 0; i < resElements.length; i++)
// Get document
ResultElement doc = resElements;
// Print Title
System.out.println("Title: " + doc.getTitle());
// Print custom attributes
CustomAttribute[] attributes = doc.getCustomAttributes();
for(int j = 0; j < attributes.length; j++)
CustomAttribute attr = attributes[j];
     System.out.println("[Custom Attribute] " + attr.getName() + ": " + attr.getValue());
Hope this helps.
