Description

still an issue as of 2.0.0-RC3 and 2.0.0-RC4.  Have also confirmed its a problem even for the regular programming model, not just Parameters model.

 

repro using 'CAUSEWAY-3175' branch of helloworld app (jdo)

• create a HelloWorld object
• create two child objects, 'aaa' and 'bbb'
• use "LookupChildUsingChoices" - this works ok
  • can select the parent HelloWorldObject in first param
  • both children are listed in second param
• use "LookupChildUsingAutoComplete" - this doesn't work
  • can select the parent HelloWorldObject in first param
  • but there is no drop-down in the second param.

original issue text:

Brian:
Meanwhile, I was following the M7 cheat sheet for contributed actions with static Parameters class. The choicesXxx() method works but not the autoCompleteXxx() one. [...] it'd be good to ensure that code that follows the last page of the cheat sheet is intact. For one thing, I needed to add @Programmatic to the Parameters class to get past metamodel validation.
