Combobox autocomplete for large lists

Hi,

Is there a way to get the combobox control (or other similar) to be user responsive for fairly large lists (>10000) ?

Not really. Have you had a chance to review the CAF Performance Report? It is here (https://empower.softwareag.com/images/CAF 8.0 on Linux performance technical report_tcm121-76249.pdf)

It does a nice job in breaking down performance characteristics of different controls. Section 7.4 specifically discusses comboboxes.

Thanks Mark.

I’m planning to use a combination of filter + asyncList.

Are there any other options I should look at?

Since we haven’t tested that combination, i can’t say for sure what the performance characteristics would be. I would probably stick to your original plan to at least ensure the functionality works, and then you can also establish a performance base-line to compare alternative approaches as well.
