Data Binding Array

[scarrier92Participant]

What I want to do is bind an array with changing data to a combobox.

//dataadapter
var column = new Array();

	var sourceType =
	{
	localdata: column,
	datatype: "array",
	datafields:
	[
		{ name: 'TypeDeProtection', type: 'string' },
	]
	};
	var dataAdapter2 = new $.jqx.dataAdapter(sourceType);
				
	$('#jqxComboBox4').jqxComboBox({source: dataAdapter2,displayMember: 'TypeDeProtection', multiSelect: true,   theme :'energyblue', width:700}); 

//then I Change data
		$("#jqxComboBox").on('change', function (event)
		{
                                      var rows = $('#jqxgrid').jqxGrid('getdisplayrows');
				for (var i = 0; i < rows.length; i++) {
					var rowData = rows[i];
					data[i]=rows[i]['TypeDeProtection'];
				}
				for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
				var row = {};
				row['TypeDeProtection'] =data[i];
				column[i] = row;
				}		});

then how do I refresh data binding

this dosen’t work
$(‘#jqxComboBox4’).jqxComboBox(‘updatebounddata’);

I would alo like to store selected items before ifd theuy are still there after data is reffresehd but What event should I use

Hi scarrier92,

There is no “updatebounddata” method in jqxComboBox so it would be strange if it had worked. To refresh the ComboBox’s data, the solution is to set it’s source property to point to new dataAdapter instance.

Hi,

Could you kindly let me know how this can be done specifically ?

My single-page application is having 10+ comboboxes pointing to a single local array (backed by a data adapter) as data source.

Regularly the data in this array will be refreshed and updated from the server, and I want all the linked comboboxes to have the source data updated.

Please kindly let me know how this can be achieved.

Thank you very much !

Hi solobobo,

As I wrote in the previous post, you need to set the “source” property to update the widget’s data source.
