TextField and KeyDownListener

I have a TextField and want to update the bean-property on every keydown-event. The problem is, vaadin doesn’t update the bean property unless the user hits enter or leaves the textfield (blur).

		this.searchField = new TextField();
		this.searchField.addKeyDownListener(e -> {
			this.handleKeyDown(e);
		});

Any suggestions?

Regards

Ok I got it, the solution was:

this.searchField.setValueChangeMode(ValueChangeMode.EAGER);
