With refrence To The Question! By abg and answer By mKorBel.
And Using J2s Auto Complete Combo Box!
The Code in the Answer By mKorBel For My Case Is Not Working When I use Item Class instead of String for ArrayList items.
Vector<Vector<String>> comboData=util.GetComboData();
ArrayList<String> listSomeString = util.GetListForComboBox(comboData);
Java2sAutoComboBox comboBox = new Java2sAutoComboBox(listSomeString);
comboBox.setDataList(listSomeString);
column.setCellEditor(new DefaultCellEditor(comboBox));
The Code For Function GetListForComboBox is as follows
public ArrayList GetListForComboBox(Vector<Vector<String>> comboData) {
//Vector model = new Vector();
ArrayList<Item_> listSomeString = new ArrayList<Item_>();
try {
String strdata;
for (int i = 0; i < comboData.size(); i++) {
String id = comboData.get(i).elementAt(0).toString();
if (comboData.get(i).elementAt(1) != null) {
strdata = comboData.get(i).elementAt(1).toString();
} else {
strdata = "";
}
Item_ it = new Item_(id, strdata);
//model.addElement(it);
listSomeString.add(it);
}
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return listSomeString;
}
The Code for Item_ class is as follows
public class Item_
{
private String description;
private String id;
public Item_( String id,String description)
{
this.description = description;
this.id = id;
}
public String getId()
{ return id;
}
public String getDescription()
{ return description;
}
public String toString()
{ return description;
}
public void setDescription(String desc)
{ description=desc;
}
}
no idea, have to create an HashMap or MutableComboBoxModel, because AutoComplete is strictly based on Array, have to change constructor
my curiosity about Bug (I can't be able to simulating this issue), is presented from this code too (disable comboBox.setRenderer(new ItemRenderer());

have to play with Caret (quick implementations for Caret, sorry too lazy, without any idea), otherwise all editor is selected, backspace selected 1st Item by default

I know this is an old question but in case it can help someone out there, here is how to do what OP asked:
In Java2sAutoCombobox, replace the function setSelectedValue(Object obj) by this one instead:
void setSelectedValue(String str)
{
if(!isFired)
{
Object objectToSelect = null;
for(Object obj: getDataList())
{
if( obj.toString().equals(str) )
{
objectToSelect = obj;
break;
}
}
isFired = true;
setSelectedItem(objectToSelect);
fireItemStateChanged(new ItemEvent(this, 701, selectedItemReminder,
1));
isFired = false;
}
}
By doing this, JComboBox.setSelectedItem() will select the object from the datalist instead of its string representation.
