Getting CurrentIndex

[gabor53]

Hi,

I intend to use the code below to get an item from an editable combobox and if it is not a duplicate update the model and write it into the db.

App {
    Rectangle {
        id: root
        color: "#a1d9ea"
        anchors.fill: parent
        focus: false

        Text {
            id: title
            text: "Combobox"
            font.pixelSize: 25
            anchors.horizontalCenter: root.horizontalCenter
            anchors.top: root.top
            anchors.topMargin: 30
        }

        ComboBox {
            id: whatCombo

            anchors.horizontalCenter: title.horizontalCenter
            anchors.top: title.bottom
            anchors.topMargin: 30
            font.pixelSize: 22
            editable: true
            textRole: "what"
            height: 50
            width: 230

            model: ListModel {
                id: listModel
            }

            ListView {
                id: listView
            }

            delegate: ItemDelegate {
                id: whatDelegate
                width: whatCombo.width
                height: whatCombo.height
                text: model.what
                font.pixelSize: 22
            }

            onAccepted: {

                if (find(editText) === -1) {
                    model.append({
                                     what: editText
                                 })

                    var newItem = editText

                    var insertedrow = false
                    if (listView.model.get(listView.currentIndex).what < 1) {
                        if (input.insertrec()) {
                            input.setlistview()
                            insertedrow = true
                        } else {
                            statustext.text = "Failed to insert row."
                        }
                    } else {
                        input.setlistview()
                        JS.dbUpdate(listView.model.get(
                                        listView.currentIndex).what)
                    }
                    if (insertedRow) {
                        input.initrec()
                        creatingNewEntry = false
                        editingEntry = false
                        listView.forceLayout()
                    }
                }
            }

            Component.onCompleted: {
                var db = JS.dbGetHandle()
                db.transaction(function (tx) {
                    var results = tx.executeSql(
                                'SELECT what FROM dropboxWhatIs order by what desc')
                    for (var i = 0; i < results.rows.length; i++) {
                        listModel.append({
                                             what: results.rows.item(i).what,
                                             checked: ""
                                         })
                    }
                })
            }
        }
    }
}

Each time I write something into the combobox and press Enter I get an error message:
**Type Error: cannot call method get of undefined.**
How can I avoid this error?
Thank you for your help.

Hi @gabor53 I believe you have you to refer to the model directly rather than via the property, so if you use listModel.append instead then does that help?

Hi @AndyS,

Unfortunately your recommendation didn't work either. I deleted the whole section and I came up with the following:
Database.js

function dbAddNew(newItem) {
    var db = dbGetHandle()
    db.transaction(function (tx) {
        tx.executeSql('INSERT INTO dropboxWhatIs VALUES (?)', [newItem])
    })
}
``
The new section in main.qml:

        onAccepted: {

            console.log("Entered onAccepted. CurrentIndex: " + currentIndex)

            if (find(editText) === -1) {
                model.append({
                                 what: editText
                             })

                console.log("editText: " + editText)

                var newItem = editText

                JS.dbGetHandle()
                JS.dbAddNew(newItem)
            }
        }

@gabor53 If you can provide a complete example then I can see the issue first hand then as it seems like it should work, but it is hard to say without seeing it.
