Magento2: setFilterGroups(array) SearchCriteria Error

Question

I have the following code:

$filter1 = $this->_filterBuilder->setField('name')
    ->setValue('%'.$searchTerm.'%')
    ->setConditionType("like")
    ->create();
$filter2 = $this->_filterBuilder->setField('description')
    ->setValue('%'.$searchTerm.'%')
    ->setConditionType("like")
    ->create();
$filterOR = $this->_filterGroupBuilder->addFilter($filter1)->addFilter($filter2)->create();
$this->_searchCriteriaBuilder->setFilterGroups([$filterOR]);
$this->_searchCriteriaBuilder->addSortOrder($searchOrder, SortOrder::SORT_ASC);
$searchCriteria = $this->_searchCriteriaBuilder->setCurrentPage($page)->setPageSize($pageSize)->create();
$searchResults = $this->_productRepository->getList($searchCriteria);

It throws an error:

Call to undefined method Magento\Framework\Api\Search\SearchCriteriaBuilder::setFilterGroups()

why?

Answer 1

There is no method setFilterGroups in the class Magento\Framework\Api\Search\SearchCriteriaBuilder
Not sure if this will work but you can try to remove the line that contains setFilterGroups and after the line

$searchCriteria = $this->_searchCriteriaBuilder->setCurrentPage($page)->setPageSize($pageSize)->create();

add this

$searchCriteria->setFilterGroups([$filterOR]);  

there is a mehtod setFilterGroups in Magento\Framework\Api\SearchCriteriaInterface and SearchCriteria class.
