LocationSearchBaseArgs Properties

A list of countries in which to search. An empty array indicates to search all countries (which might not be supported by some search sources). The default is all countries.

A dictionary of custom arguments specific to custom search sources. This could be used, for example, to provide authentication details or customer information for a custom search source that needs to authenticate with an external server or provides customer-specific results. The default is an empty dictionary.

An optional LatLon value that adds a bias towards nearby results. The default is Empty.

For searches that include POI results, restrict the types of POI to search to those in the PoiTypes array. The default is an empty array, which includes all POI types.

The query's form; that is whether it is a prefix query or a complete query. This provides a hint as to which search sources should be used. For example, a prefix query is likely to be handled by a different geocoder than a full query. The default is QueryForm.Prefix.

The maximum number of results that can be returned by any one search. The default is 5.

The types of results to search for and return.

A hint as to the desired depth of the search. A low depth is best suited to user interfaces that need to be highly responsive; a high depth is best suited to contexts where high quality results are particularly important, at the sacrifice of search speed. The default is SearchDepth.Medium.

Specifies how long the search should continue before terminating prematurely. Specifying a timeout of TimeSpan.Zero means that the search will not timeout. When a search times out, the LocationSearchResult object returned contains all suggestions found prior to the timeout and has a status of Timeout.
