Hey all... I was trying to find a way to substitute my own subclass of SuggestOracle.Request in a SuggestBox implementation. This seems impossible, as the creation of the Request object happens deep in the bowels of the SuggestBox framework.
This is a problem - basically, we have a case where we want to add a "Show More" line to a list of suggestions. Eg: [fred] Fred1 Fred2 Fred3 Show More... I can add the "Show More" as a Suggestion, and subclass Suggestion so that it contains the metadata identifying it as a "special" value. However, when I click on it, the Request object that the SuggestBox framework creates is a plain one, with only a String query and an int limit. What I'd *like* is for any associated metadata I've added to the Suggestion subclass to be included in the Request object that is generated; even a reference to the original Suggestion object would be fine. But this data is not available, so all I get is the query and the limit, and nothing else. Has anyone ever gotten SuggestBox to work the way I want? Substitute the creation of the Request object with your own implementation/subclass? It seems a no-brainer that this would be useful, but it's not possible so far as I can see. - Tim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
