ComboBox setValue

I have a problem for the management of a comboBox (cb)

List profili = profiliService.findAll(b);
container = new BeanItemContainer<>(Profili.class, profili);
...
cb.setContainerDataSource(container);
cb.setItemCaptionMode(ItemCaptionMode.PROPERTY);
cb.setItemCaptionPropertyId("[b]profdescr[/b]");
cb.setTextInputAllowed(false);
cb.setInputPrompt("No selected profile");
cb.setNullSelectionAllowed(false);
cb.setNewItemsAllowed(false);
cb.setImmediate(true);

inside comboBox cb I view the profiles properly

Within a table I insert users with profdescr field

utentiService = new UtentiService();
        List utenti = utentiService.findAll(b);
        tab.setContainerDataSource(new BeanItemContainer<>(Utenti.class, utenti));
        tab.setVisibleColumns("uuser", "[b]profdescr[/b]", "uemail");
        tab.setColumnReorderingAllowed(true);
        tab.setSelectable(true);
        tab.setImmediate(true);
        tab.setColumnHeader("uuser", "User");
        tab.setColumnHeader("profdescr", "Profilo");
        tab.setColumnHeader("uemail", "E-Mail");
        tab.addItemClickListener(new ItemClickEvent.ItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void itemClick(ItemClickEvent itemClickEvent) {
                if (itemClickEvent.isDoubleClick()) {
                    System.out.println(itemClickEvent.getItemId().toString());
                    updateForm(itemClickEvent);
                } else
                    vCampi.setVisible(false);
            }
        });

on itemClickEvent I read the selected data of the item and fill the textfield. cb.setValue (and cb.select) does not work

private void updateForm(ItemClickEvent itemClickEvent) {
        if (itemClickEvent.getItemId().toString().equals("")) {
            ...
        } else {
            Utenti utente = (Utenti) itemClickEvent.getItemId();
            tb_user.setValue(utente.getUuser());
            tb_pwd.setValue(utente.getUpwd());
            tb_email.setValue(utente.getUemail());

            Item item = itemClickEvent.getItem();
            cb.setImmediate(true);
            cb.setValue(item.getItemProperty("profdescr").getValue());
        }
    }

grazie
 

The combobox is using a BeanItemContainer so you should give an instace of your Profili class to select or setValue.

And in Profili class you should correctly implement equals and hashcode

thank you, I solved this way. It will not be the cleanest solution but it works

Iterator it = cb_profilo.getItemIds().iterator();
            while(it.hasNext()){
                Profili id = (Profili) it.next();
                if (id.getProfdescr().equals(utente.getProfdescr()))
                {
                    cb_profilo.select(id);
                    break;
                }
            }
