Support for SimpleComboBox

[GoogleCodeExporter]

like this:

<form:SimpleComboBox width="80">
   <form:SimpleComboValue>"before"</form:SimpleComboValue>
   <form:SimpleComboValue>"after"</form:SimpleComboValue>
</form:SimpleComboBox>

??

Probably would have to do something different with the SimpleComboValue.  The 
UiBinder Editor always has problems with non-Widget elements.

It looks like the add() method on SimpleComboBox supports any data type to be 
added

so, how would you use SimpleComboBox currently? (simple example?)

Sorry.  I didn't mean that it currently works today.  Most likely it won't 
without some custom XML parsing.

I have been trying to get just ComboBox to work per your example, I'm getting 
this:

[ERROR] - Returns class ListStore<ComboBoxItem>, can't be used as class 
ListStore<D>

(qualified names removed for brevity)...
my class (ComboBoxItem) is simply extending BaseModel like your Stock class 
does.
any clue what is wrong here?

I'm assuming you're referring to the Forms demo.

From that demo, I have this:

<ui:with type="com.extjs.gxt.ui.client.store.ListStore" field="companyStore" />
...
<form:ComboBox fieldLabel="Company" displayField="name" triggerAction="ALL" 
store="{companyStore}" />

With a UiFactory:
@UiFactory
public ListStore<Stock> provideCompanyStore() {
...
}

What version of GWT and GXT are you using?

GWT 2.1.1
GXT 2.2.1

sorry...my bad...I tried doing this through a property of an object provided by 
a UiFactory - it apparently won't allow that.

Okay.  So, you're good with the ComboBox.  You still need the SimpleComboBox 
however.

Add support in 0.9-SNAPSHOT.  Will be available in the next release (most 
likely this coming weekend).

Used the XML:

<form:SimpleComboBox ui:field="checkNodes" triggerAction="ALL" editable="false" 
simpleValue="Both">
    <form:value>Both</form:value>
    <form:value>Leaf</form:value>
    <form:value>Parent</form:value>
</form:SimpleComboBox>

Right now, it will only support String values as nested children.
