Java Forum / GUI / June 2007jComboBox with autocomplete from database
Hi, I want to create autocomplete input (jComboBox) in desktop application. Data to autocomplete function should be dynamically taken from database. (There are too much data in table to load all records and put in combo box). Do you have an idea/examples/frameworks how to solve this issue???

An autocomplete that required a remote SQL lookup on every keystroke would drive the user mad with frustration it would be so slow. You MUST have all possibilities cached locally, even if on local hard disk. You would store them in a TreeMap, or in a disk based equivalent, e.g. a local miniature SQL database. see http://mindprod.com/jgloss/treemap.html -- Roedy Green Canadian Mind Products The Java Glossary http://mindprod.com >I want to create autocomplete input (jComboBox) in desktop application. >Data to autocomplete function should be dynamically taken from database. >(There are too much data in table to load all records and put in combo box). >Do you have an idea/examples/frameworks how to solve this issue???
