Non-strict matching
I was asked if it is possible to do non-strict matching - allowing the user to enter an item
that is not (yet) contained in the combo box. This one is fairly easy to implement. Instead
of rejecting non-matching input, accept it is accepted. The rejecting section inside the
insert method...
if (item != null) {
setSelectedItem(item);
} else {
// keep old item selected if there is no match
item = comboBox.getSelectedItem();
// imitate no insert
// (later on offs will be incremented by str.length(): selection won't move forward)
offs = offs-str.length();
// provide feedback to the user that his input has been received but can not be accepted
UIManager.getLookAndFeel().provideErrorFeedback(comboBox);
}
setText(item.toString());
// select the completed part
highlightCompletedText(offs+str.length());
...to accept all input it can be replaced by...
boolean listContainsSelectedItem = true;
if (item == null) {
// no item matches => use the current input as selected item
item=getText(0, getLength());
listContainsSelectedItem=false;
}
setText(item.toString());
// select the completed part
if (listContainsSelectedItem) highlightCompletedText(offs+str.length());;
