comboboxsearchable and event handling

Postby ksmani » Thu Apr 01, 2010 11:16 am

I am using a searchable combobox. The wildcard search is enabled and will be used.

Requirement is that depending upon the selection on this searchableCombo, i have to update two other components. The problem is which listener should I use ? I tried itemListener, actionListener, popuplistener, keyListener (on editorcomponent) etc. They all fire straightway after the first key stroke and the popup closes. This defeats the puprpose of using the UP/DOWN arrow key for traversing through the subsequent occurrences of the searched items. Relevant part of code is:
Code: Select all
      iColumnNameComboBox.setModel(iColumnNameModel);
      
      ComboBoxSearchable mSearchableCombo = new ComboBoxSearchable(iColumnNameComboBox);
      
      
      iColumnNameComboBox.addItemListener(new ItemListener() {
         public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e) {
            if (e.getStateChange() == ItemEvent.SELECTED) {
               AdHocColumnDescriptor mDescriptor = (AdHocColumnDescriptor) iColumnNameComboBox
                     .getSelectedItem();
               if (mDescriptor != null) {
                  if (iSqlOperatorComboBox.getModel().getSize() > 0) {
                     iSqlOperatorComboBox.setSelectedIndex(0);
                  }
                  iOperatorModel.setColumn(mDescriptor);
                  replaceColumnValueEditor(mDescriptor.getValueEditor());
                  resize();
               }
            }
         }
      });
      
       add(iColumnNameComboBox);
      


Please help me !!

Please try to register a popup menu listener and check from the stack trace about which reason causes the popup invisible. Looks to me, it is possible that focus is lost at that time, which causes the popup invisible..

Thanks,
