Combobox not loading every time page loads.

[#1]

Hi, I have a scenario to load a combobox on every loading of page in xml views.

The combobox doesnt load each time the page is called. It loads if i refresh the page else its blank. The data for the combobox is coming from a service and is called from actiondatareceived function which is called in onInit().

When i check in the networks tab of console the service is triggered but the dropdown just shows blank many a times

. Please find the code below.

 <ComboBox items="{/results}" loadItems="loadcombo" id="comboid">
     <items> <core:Item  id="comboitemid" key="{ExpType}" text="{NameOfExpType}"/></items>
 </ComboBox>

     exptypemodel.read("/ExpenseTypeSet",{
      filters: [Filter],
      success:function(odata){
      	var combomodel = new sap.ui.model.json.JSONModel(odata);
      	sap.ui.getCore().setModel(combomodel,"exptypeid")
      var combo = sap.ui.getCore().byId("InvoiceItemser--comboid");
        combo.setModel(combomodel);
        },
        error:function(err){
          console.log(err);
        }
        });

Info:

If this not the issue.

>> Please check are you defining one more model without model name.

I have found this erratic behaviour is due to some issue in backend as we are using a batch request. One of the requests fails and throws 400.

scn below. When im checking in error_log of gw it tells me to refer a note on how to use batch requests. I also tested with applying debug on ABAP side where the code is going in some exception when combobox is used.

Strangely this doesnt happen all the times. Sometimes the combobox loads and sometimes it doesnt thus giving this error

<ComboBox items="{exptypeid>/results}">
    <items>
        <core:Item  id="comboitemid" key="{exptypeid>ExpType}" text="{exptypeid>NameOfExpType}"/>
    </items>
</ComboBox>

     exptypemodel.read("/ExpenseTypeSet",{filters:[Filter],
      success:function(odata){
      	var combomodel =new sap.ui.model.json.JSONModel(odata);
            sap.ui.getCore().setModel(combomodel,"exptypeid");
        error:function(err){
          console.log(err);}});

can you try adding

combo.setModel(combomodel);
combomodel.refresh(true);

[archit_wahi]

Thanks for the answer, I tried refresh but its still the same.

Also another strange behaviour is when i debug the page during initialisation and finish debug adn stepout with F8 the dropdown loads.

what about

setTimeout(function() {
  combomodel.refresh(true);
}, 0);

he is using jsonmodel, refresh won't help.

trigger it by yourself

[archit_wahi]

Its just giving me a loading busy indicator when i try to trigger the url read and bind to combobox on the loadItems event i.e whenever the combobox is clicked for inputs.

change & slectionChange events are not for my scenario.

do it before /after you navigate to that view
