How to filter contacts with phone number

I'm trying to query the contacts database with the help of filter, I'm using the following code to add filters

 

contacts_filter_h filter;
res = contacts_filter_create(_contacts_number._uri, &filter);
	if (res != CONTACTS_ERROR_NONE) {
		dlog_print(DLOG_DEBUG, "test", "contacts_filter_create-->Error-->%s",
				get_error_message(res));
	}
res = contacts_filter_add_str(filter, _contacts_number.number,
			CONTACTS_MATCH_FULLSTRING, "11111");
	if (res != CONTACTS_ERROR_NONE) {
		dlog_print(DLOG_DEBUG, "test", "contacts_filter_add_str-->Error-->%s",
				get_error_message(res));
	}

In the function catacts_filter_add_str I'm gettign "INVALID PARAMETER" error. I know that the type of the _contacts_number.number is not string but, I have no clue on how to query on the phone number.

Hi,
Maybe for int you should use contacts_filter_add_int with CONTACTS_MATCH_EQUAL, see also _get_filter_with_int_field in Native exampe ->Sample Contacts template application.

But the property number is of type string?

Hi, 

In contact sample contact-list-utils.c file, you can refer this:

static contacts_filter_h _get_filter_with_int_field(const char *table_uri, unsigned int filter_field, int int_val)
{
    RETVM_IF(NULL == table_uri, NULL, "table_uri is null");
    contacts_filter_h filter = NULL;

    if( !(sc_db_utils_is_success(contacts_filter_create(table_uri, &filter))
     && sc_db_utils_is_success(contacts_filter_add_int(filter, filter_field, CONTACTS_MATCH_EQUAL, int_val))))
    {
        contacts_filter_destroy(filter);
        filter = NULL;
    }
    return filter;
}
