Clienscripting filter list on client [message #1125433]

Hi,

In our application we have a textcontrol and a table beneath it.
When the user types into the textcontrol the table gets filtered according to the textcontrol-text.
The RCP-variant using keylistener would generate a lot of traffic.
We thought about using clientscripting to add a keylistener in jscript and pass the widget id of the table to the clientlistener (like it is done in the clientscripting-demo plugin).
Unfortunatly when i retrieve the object using

rap.getObject("w4")

i get only

Object {}

.
Is there a way in RAP 2.1 to filter a table via clientscripting?

Thanks in advance

Hi.

The Table is not (yet) scripting enabled because it relies too much on
server side code to function. The feature you describe would require to
create and dispose TableItems on the client, which would be difficult
thing to enable for Scripting. The List widget isn't scripting enabled
either, but since the List items are only strings it would be much more
feasible to support in the near future

I think the best solution would currently be using the Modify Listener
(on the server), which creates much less traffic than key events.

Greeting,
Tim
