Set ComboBox.store programmatically fails

[maceto]

HTML

<input dojoType="dijit.form.ComboBox?" name="state" id="state" autoComplete="true" required="true" onchange="LoadCities?"</input>

Code

function LoadCities?(newValue) {

checkLoadAddrDijits(); jsonDSUF1.fetch({

queryOptions: {ignoreCase: true}, query: {name: newValue}, onItem: function (item, request) {

LoadJSON_DS_City(item.uf);

fCity.store = jsonDSCity; fCity.searchAttr = "name";

}

});

}

Where jsonDSCity is a dojo.data.ItemFileReadStore? type.

OBS

This code works perfectly in version 1.6.0 and 1.6.1!

did you try fCity.set('store', jsonDSCity); like you should be doing when setting widget properties? same for searchAttr. setting the property directly works in some cases but if you want your code to stay compatible with future versions, use set and get.

btw, this is not to say that using set will definitely work for you but this isn't a bug unless using set doesn't work.

Presumably it's what neonstalwart said. In the future please attach test cases using the "attach file" button rather than inlining code snippets into the ticket. And also, read the ​release notes, as this kind of thing is documented.

Thanks,

I made the changes you suggested. It worked perfectly.
