Google's global quick search widget missing in Android 2.2

Question

I was unable to find the google's search widget on the home screen neither on the the list of available widgets.If i click menu from the home screen and if i press search nothing happens.

I could neither find an option called "Search" in settings page from where i could enable my application in searchable items.The issue is we have enabled Global search for our application and previously if used to show search results from my application if i search here.

I tested this in a stimulator and i am yet to test it on a device.

Has it been removed in 2.2?

Answer 1

This was a bug in Android SDK 2.2 which was later confirmed by a goolge employee in a separate post
