FeatureLayer.selectFeatures does not work when using a where clause

RobertMetzger

Hello,

I am trying to select features from a feature layer using a query with a where clause. It returns the correct features, but does not draw them. When I do the same thing but use a query with the geometry property set to a polygon, the correct features are returned AND drawn on the map. How do I get this to draw the feature layer when using a where clause with the query?

Here is my code:

    var featureLayer = new esri.layers.FeatureLayer(arcGisServerUrl + "/" + serviceLayerId, {
        mode: esri.layers.FeatureLayer.MODE_SELECTION,
        outFields: ["*"],
        id: featureLayerName
    });

    var query = new esri.tasks.Query();
    query.outFields = ["*"];
    query.returnGeometry = true;
    query.where = "1=1";

    featureLayer.selectFeatures(query, esri.layers.FeatureLayer.SELECTION_NEW, HandleRouteSelectFeaturesResults);

Thanks!
Rob

I ran a quick test and selecting features using a where clause worked for me. Here's a jsFiddle showing the code:

I used the feature layer URL from your example and my code worked. There must be something wrong with my service when using a where clause. I'll have to check with the person who made the service to make sure it is returning the correct data. It always returns the correct features, but there might be something subtly wrong with the geometry. Thanks!
