AutocompleteTextField on submit : The value of .. is not a valid ...

[ganea iulia]

Hi,

Please help me with following issue:


I'm using wicket 7.

I have a form with a AutocompleteTextField.

The autocompletion works ok until I need to submit the form, when I get
following message:


   - The value of 'test' is not a valid TestBean.


Here is my component:

IAutoCompleteRenderer<TestBean> testRenderer = new
IAutoCompleteRenderer<TestBean>() {

private static final long serialVersionUID = -7038764178796856779L;

@Override
public void render(TestBean object, Response response, String criteria) {
response.write((new StringBuilder()).append("<li
idvalue=\"").append(object.getCod).append("\"
textvalue=\"").append(object.getUniqueName()).append("\">").toString());
response.write(object.getUniqueName());
response.write("</li>");
}

@Override
public void renderFooter(Response response, int ItemId) {
response.write("</ul>");

}

@Override
public void renderHeader(Response response) {
response.write("<ul>");

}

};
AutoCompleteTextField<TestBean> txt = new
AutoCompleteTextField<TestBean>("test", new PropertyModel<TestBean>(this,
"myTestBean"), TestBean.class,
testRenderer, (new AutoCompleteSettings().setPreselect(true))) {

private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private List<TestBean> TestList = null;

@Override
protected Iterator<TestBean> getChoices(String input) {
if (Strings.isEmpty(input)) {
return Collections.emptyIterator();
} else {
if (input.length() > 0) {
if (TestList == null || TestList.isEmpty() || !input.substring(0,
1).toUpperCase().equals(TestList.get(0).getUniqueName().substring(0,
1).toUpperCase())) {
TestList =
SpringCtx.getAppDB(TestBeanDao.class).selectAproxByUniqueName(input.substring(0,
1));
}
}
}

int autoCompleteFieldNumChoices = 20;

List<TestBean> choices = new
ArrayList<TestBean>(autoCompleteFieldNumChoices);

for (int i = 0; i < TestList.size(); i++) {
final TestBean testBean = TestList.get(i);
final String testName = testBean.getUniqueName();

if (testName.toUpperCase().startsWith(input.toUpperCase())) {
choices.add(testBean);
if (choices.size() == autoCompleteFieldNumChoices) {
break;
}
}
}
return choices.iterator();
}
};
