Description Michael Seele CLA 2005-05-12 02:25:17 EDT
I'm looking for a SWT control that might be described as a Combo with filter
capability, to be used in making it easy to select one or more items from a
sorted list which may contain several thousand items. The combo should have this
additional functionality:

(1) Typing in the text box would dynamically filter the visible contents of
the list box to only contain items that match the text box contents.

(2) Validator wouldn't allow user to type text that doesn't match something
in the list box.

(3) Selected items remain visible even if they don't match the text
currently in the text box.

please extend the combo widget with these functionality!

Felipe, this should be a pretty small snippet.  Want to write it?
