Smart Multi Input

The SmartMultiInput control can be used to create a multi-input field or a multi-input combobox.

For more information about this control, see the API Reference and the Samples in the Demo Kit.

Overview

The SmartMultiInput control acts as a wrapper control for the sap.ui.comp.smartfield.SmartField control and supports the same settings and annotations. It interprets OData metadata to create a multi-input field or a multi-input combobox, similar to sap.m.MultiInput and sap.m.MultiComboBox but with added annotation capabilities. Thanks to the annotations support, smart multi input fields and comboboxes can be embedded into other smart controls, such as sap.ui.comp.smartform.SmartForm.

Smart Multi Input Fields in a Smart Form

Details

Implementation

  • You can create a SmartMultiInput control inside a smart field or a smart form control. For an example of smart multi input fields inside a smart form, see the samples in the Demo Kit.

Data Binding

  • Smart multi input fields and comboboxes support three modes of data binding: two-way binding, one-way binding, and one-time binding. To learn more about binding modes, see Data Binding.

  • The OData entity property that is displayed in the smart multi input field or combobox can be defined in the parent control's value property. When any of the data binding modes is used, the value property should be bound to a navigation property. When no data binding is used, the value property can be bound to an arbitrary property of the entity set specified in the parent control's entitySet property.
