[Pswing-users] FASD project: Online survey launched

[<ben...@id...>]

Dear Open Source developer

I am doing a research project on "Fun and Software Development" in which I kindly invite you to participate.
You will find the online survey under http://fasd.ethz.ch/qsf/. The questionnaire consists of 53 questions and you will need about 15 minutes to complete it.

With the FASD project (Fun and Software Development) we want to define the motivational significance of fun when software developers decide to engage in Open Source projects. What is special about our research project is that a similar survey is planned with software developers in commercial firms. This procedure allows the immediate comparison between the involved individuals and the conditions of production of these two development models. Thus we hope to obtain substantial new insights to the phenomenon of Open Source Development.


With many thanks for your participation,
Benno Luthiger


PS:
The results of the survey will be published under http://www.isu.unizh.ch/fuehrung/blprojects/FASD/.
We have set up the mailing list fa...@we... for this study. Please see http://fasd.ethz.ch/qsf/mailinglist_en.html for registration to this mailing list.

Hi, Marcus.

Thanks for making this enhancement. I'll merge it into PSwing and make it available the next time
I do a release.

Hi, Mark.

I've tested your little demo and I've seen the problem you're talking about.
It doesn't happen all the time, though. It looks like you're using the
component properly, so I'll have to do some de-bugging to find out what's
causing it.

Thanks for letting me know about this bug.

Hi!

     I don't know user suggestions are welcome or not, but I found an
annoying problem. I can't explain it shortly so I attach a small example.

     To see, just start the application. It contains only a PComboBox
with 2 elements. When you trying to write into the box something like
'Alter' for example, you can't fully do it! Can you tell me why?

Thank you for your patient,

    Mark Tolmacs

[Pswing-users] Re: PComboBox AutoCompletion

[Robert M. <rob...@ya...>]

Hi, Marcus.

Thanks for giving PComboBox a try. 

The API doc for javax.swing.ListModel does not describe the proper behavior for getElementAt when
the list does not have an item for the requested index. However, the default combo box model
always returns null when this happens, which seems pretty logical and consistent with other Java
classes (ArrayList, for example). So this is the behavior that PComboBox expects. 

I need to document this.

Just so you know, passing an index of -1 is PComboBox's way of saying that it can't find a match
for whatever you're typing. 

By the way, make sure that you call the buildIndex() method on PComboBox after you've added all of
the items to the combo box of PComboBox won't work.

Thanks and good luck.
