ComboBoxCellEditor can't save custom input value [message #1753251]

Hello Experts,

I tried to use nattable to develop a csv import program.

This is how I declare the bodylayer

TableDataProvider tData = new TableDataProvider();
IDataProvider bodyDataProvider = tData;
AutomaticSpanningDataProvider spanningDataProvider = new AutomaticSpanningDataProvider(bodyDataProvider, true, false);
SpanningDataLayer bodyDataLayer = new SpanningDataLayer(spanningDataProvider);

You can check the screenshot, row 2 shows the name of data, user can pick a name from the combobox or input a custom one. If the user pick the name from dropdown list, the change will be saved, not if the user input custom value, after
press enter nothing happen. I have try to change the edit rule to make every cell
always editable, and other text cell can save the change too.

And here is the code I use to set the combo cells

ComboBoxCellEditor cBox = new ComboBoxCellEditor(Arrays.asList(temp_line));
cBox.setFreeEdit(true);
configRegistry.registerConfigAttribute(EditConfigAttributes.CELL_EDITOR, cBox, DisplayMode.NORMAL, CONFIG_LABEL_COMBO+cIndex);
configRegistry.registerConfigAttribute(CellConfigAttributes.CELL_PAINTER, new ComboBoxPainter(), DisplayMode.NORMAL, CONFIG_LABEL_COMBO+cIndex);

Thanks for the help.

Can't tell anything with the given information. Sounds like the commit is not possible. Check the console for exceptions.

Thanks for reply.
I have found when select the name from dropdown list, the comboboxcell editor called the setDataValue method of data provider to save the value, but it won't be trigger by custom input. Is there any reason could cause the comboboxcelleditor didn't fire the update data command when the input value isn't from combo list?

Is there any information I could provide to help you? I didn't get any error message or exception in console.

Thank you.

I really can't tell. Typically I would suppose that something with the commit is not working. Either because of conversion or validation failures. Or the datatype does not match the backing bean. But this should be visible in the console or the log. Try to debug in AbstractCellEditor#commit(MoveDirectionEnum, boolean, boolean) to find out more.
