I am using selectInputText with autocomplete function inside a dataTable. My table has 10 rows.

<ice:selectInputText size="13"
maxlength="50"
actionListener="#{cAuto.putCurrentSub(_sub)}"
valueChangeListener="#{cAuto.updateList}"
title="This textbox is enhanced with auto-complete functionality. Just type in the c-nr you are looking for.">
<f:selectItems value="#{cAuto.matchesList}"/>
</ice:selectInputText>


Whenever user selects a value (for a field) from the auto complete listing, i have to populate the values in another fields of that row in dataTable.

--Independ of the number of rows in the dataTable, it works only for the last row everytime and the inputvalue is cleared


public void putCurrentSub(Sub sub)
{
this.currentSub = sub;
}



public void updateList(ValueChangeEvent event)
{
setMatches(event);

if (event.getComponent() instanceof SelectInputText)
{
SelectInputText autoComplete = (SelectInputText) event.getComponent();
if (autoComplete.getSelectedItem() != null)
{
Sub sub = (Sub) autoComplete.getSelectedItem().getValue();

currentSub.setSub(sub);
valueChangeEffect.setFired(false);
}
}

}




protected void setMatches(ValueChangeEvent event)
{

setMatchesList(new ArrayList<SelectItem>());
String searchWord = event.getNewValue().toString();
if (!searchWord.equals(""))
{
List<Sub> tempCountList = getEntityManager().createQuery("select ec from Sub ec where ec.cNo like :cNo").setParameter("cNo", searchWord + "%").getResultList();
for (Sub sub : tempCountList)
{
SelectItem selectItem = new SelectItem(sub, sub.getCNo());
if (!getMatchesList().contains(selectItem))
{
getMatchesList().add(selectItem);
}
}
}
}
