public class Combo
extends Composite

Instances of this class are controls that allow the user to choose an item from a list of items, or optionally enter a new value by typing it into an editable text field. Often, Combos are used in the same place where a single selection List widget could be used but space is limited. A Combo takes less space than a List widget and shows similar information.

Note: Since Combos can contain both a list and an editable text field, it is possible to confuse methods which access one versus the other (compare for example, clearSelection() and deselectAll()). The API documentation is careful to indicate either "the receiver's list" or the "the receiver's text field" to distinguish between the two cases.

Note that although this class is a subclass of Composite, it does not make sense to add children to it, or set a layout on it.

Styles:
DROP_DOWN, READ_ONLY
Events:
DefaultSelection, Modify, Selection

IMPORTANT: This class is not intended to be subclassed.

The class description lists the style constants that are applicable to the class. Style bits are also inherited from superclasses.

Parameters:
parent - a composite control which will be the parent of the new instance (cannot be null)
style - the style of control to construct
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException -
  • ERROR_NULL_ARGUMENT - if the parent is null
SWTException -
  • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the parent
  • ERROR_INVALID_SUBCLASS - if this class is not an allowed subclass

See Also:
LIMIT

setTextLimit

public void setTextLimit(int limit)
Sets the maximum number of characters that the receiver's text field is capable of holding to be the argument.

To reset this value to the default, use setTextLimit(Combo.LIMIT). Specifying a limit value larger than Combo.LIMIT sets the receiver's limit to Combo.LIMIT.

Parameters:
limit - new text limit
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException -
  • ERROR_CANNOT_BE_ZERO - if the limit is zero
SWTException -
  • ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed

  • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver
Since:
1.3

computeSize

public Point computeSize(int wHint,
                         int hHint,
                         boolean changed)
Description copied from class: Control
Returns the preferred size of the receiver.

The preferred size of a control is the size that it would best be displayed at. The width hint and height hint arguments allow the caller to ask a control questions such as "Given a particular width, how high does the control need to be to show all of the contents?" To indicate that the caller does not wish to constrain a particular dimension, the constant SWT.DEFAULT is passed for the hint.

If the changed flag is true, it indicates that the receiver's contents have changed, therefore any caches that a layout manager containing the control may have been keeping need to be flushed. When the control is resized, the changed flag will be false, so layout manager caches can be retained.

Overrides:
computeSize in class Composite
Parameters:
wHint - the width hint (can be SWT.DEFAULT)
hHint - the height hint (can be SWT.DEFAULT)
changed - true if the control's contents have changed, and false otherwise
Returns:
the preferred size of the control.
