searchGroups returns first 100 results

[vamirr]

When performing searchGroups under the authority service, it limits the results to the first 100.  Is this a bug?  How can I get around this?

This is on 3.4.

Hi Vamirr.
If you take a look to the javadocs you can see that for version 3.4 (unlike 3.3) the are two methods signatures for searchGroups:

searchGroups

public ScriptGroup[] searchGroups(java.lang.String shortNameFilter)
Search for groups in all zones.
Parameters:
shortNameFilter - partial match on shortName (* and ?) work. If empty then matches everything.
Returns:
the groups matching the query

searchGroups

public ScriptGroup[] searchGroups(java.lang.String shortNameFilter, ScriptPagingDetails paging, java.lang.String sortBy)
Search for groups in all zones.
Parameters:
shortNameFilter - partial match on shortName (* and ?) work. If empty then matches everything.
paging - Paging object with max number to return, and items to skip
sortBy - What to sort on (authorityName, shortName or displayName)
Returns:
the groups matching the query

The latter has a paging parameter that allows you to scroll across results.
Hope this could help
