Autocomplete component

[Manuel Corrales <ma...@gmail.com>]

Hi, i have s doubt about autocomplete component. According to the
documentation, you can return a list of any objects on the
onProvideCompletions, my question is, when i choose a value, this value is
going to be the object from that list? or just a string and i have to make a
match beetwen the string and the real object?

Thanks very much!

Hi,

Using autocomplete mixin, how do we know, if an option of the list provided
was selected, or if user has entered another text?

Would be great if some event was fired on server side when user select one
of option provided by mixin.

Thanks,

Marcus

The Autocomplete calls toString on each of the objects that you
return, and that is the value that is set into your input box.

You can check out the source for the component it's pretty short.

If you want more complex data to be displayed then you can extend the
class and implement the generateResponseMarkup method. As of 5.0.11
extending the client side behavior when the user chooses a value is
not possible, as far as I could find.
