[flexcoders] Changing the dataProvider for a ComboBox doesn't seem to work properly

[Nick Middleweek]

Hi,

I have a ComboBox with it's dataProvider set to an Array( =, , ,
 );

If a TextInput is changed, I want to change (or update) the ComboBox
dataProvider to use this Array( =,  );

And if that TextInput is blank (), then I want to switch it back to Array(
=, , ,  );

I've tried declaring two private var arrays and switching the
ComboBox.dataProvider on the change event of the TextInput but strange
things happening and it seems the dataProvider isn't refreshed properly
until I clicked on the ComboBox and select an item. I've tried using
validateNow.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?


Thanks,
Nick

use arraycollection as the dataprovider. also set [Bindable] tag before the
variables.
