get_entry_list result

[raffor]

what is the best way to retrieve all the data in one of the SugarCRM modules ( Contacts) , by using the SOAP api "get_entry_list "

$search_list=$sugarClientProxy->get_entry_list($session_id,'Contacts',$query,$ord er_by,$offset,array('id','last_name'),$max_results ,$deleted);

print_r($search_list); this is empty but j have more Contacts. Why???

Thank you

Try this for fetching all the contacts

require_once "SugarSoap.php";
$soap=new SugarSoap('http://mysugar/soap.php?wsdl'); // we automatically log in
$result=$soap->getContacts(" contacts.email1<>'' ",5," contacts.last_name desc");
if($result['result_count']>0){
foreach($result['entry_list'] as $record){
$array= $soap->nameValuePairToSimpleArray($record['name_value_list']);
echo $array['first_name'] . " " . $array['last_name'] . " - " . $array['email1']. "<br>";
}
} else {
echo "No contacts found";
}

Hey sanjaykatiyar1,

What is this nameValuePairToSimpleArray function that you speak of?

[eggsurplus]

I got impatient and wrote something that'll flatten the array out a bit:

 function nameValuePairToSimpleArray($sets) {
    $newarray = array();
    foreach ( $sets as $set )
    {
        $newarray[$set['name']] = $set['value'];
    }
    
    return $newarray;
}

How can I get the total number of elements with get_entry_list method?
Actually, I get the number of elements used to show in the ListView pagination. How can I resolve that?
