using AutoCompleteTextField in wicket without String as the generic type
- by Manuel
Hi!
This question follows this: handling to onchange event of AutoCompleteTextField in wicket
I'm trying to use the AutoCompleteTextField with a custom class as the generic type, and to add an AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior. What I mean is I want to have a
AutoCompleteTextField<SomeClass> myAutoComplete = ...;
and after that add a AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior:
myAutoComplete.add(new AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior("onchange") {
@Override
protected void onUpdate(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
System.out.println( "Value: "+getValue() );
}
});
The problem is that for some reason, adding that behavior makes the form try to set the model object with a String (even though the AutoCompleteTextField has a generic type of SomeClass), causing a ClassCastException when the onchange event fires.
Is there a way to use AutoCompleteTextField without it being AutoCompleteTextField<String>? I couldn't find any example. Thanks for your time!
and thanks to the user biziclop for his help in this matter.
