Re: Do something when clicking on suggestion

Hi Olar,

I am not an expert about suggestions but I had read that multiwordsuggestOracle wasn't good for retrieving data from a database but must see SuggestOracle instead.
Did you implemented the getDBSuggestion() or in fact want to know how to implement it perhaps ?
Is your problem that when typing a character nothing happens ?

More explanation could help the readers to help you maybe

Hello everybody,

I have sort of a conversation system integrated in my application. The class ConversationWidget represents the main widget for the conversation system.

Somewhere there I have a suggestion box, which I want to use to search through all the available conversations based on some patterns, like subject, user, and so on.

I want, when the suggestion is clicked, to parse the String, and to open the desired conversation. The ideea is, that I have some methods in my ConversationWidget class, like viewConversation(int id, final SimplePanel convPanel) which repaints the convPanel with the new conversation.

What would be a way to implement that ? To call viewConversation() in my ConversationWidget based on which Suggestion is clicked?

Thanks in advance,

Andrei

public class ConversationWidget extends Composite implements CustomWidget {

        public ConversationWidget(UserInfo userInfo) {

this.userInfo = userInfo;

initWidget(initializeWidget());

}

        @Override

public Widget initializeWidget() {
            .
            .
            .

                MultiWordSuggestOracle oracle = getDBSuggestions(); // Suggestions come from the DB

final CustomTexBox searchBox = new CustomTexBox();

searchBox.getElement().getStyle().setMarginTop(15.0, Unit.PX);

searchBox.getElement().getStyle().setMarginRight(10.0, Unit.PX);

CustomSuggestionDisplay display = new CustomSuggestionDisplay();

SuggestBox suggestBox = new SuggestBox(oracle, searchBox, display);
            .
            .
            .

        }

}

public class CustomSuggestionDisplay extends SuggestBox.DefaultSuggestionDisplay {

@Override

protected void showSuggestions(SuggestBox suggestBox, Collection<? extends Suggestion> suggestions, boolean isDisplayStringHTML,

boolean isAutoSelectEnabled, SuggestionCallback callback) {

callback = new SuggestionCallback() {

@Override

public void onSuggestionSelected(Suggestion suggestion) {

                          // TODO

}

};

super.showSuggestions(suggestBox, suggestions, isDisplayStringHTML, isAutoSelectEnabled, callback);

}

}
