Bug report

When the value of the widget is set in the dataBound event handler the filtering events is fired and e.filter is undefined

Reproduction of the problem

  1. Open the Dojo
  2. Open the browser console and type something in the MultiSelect to filter the data.

Current behavior

The filtering event is fired a second time and the second time the e.filter is undefined.

Expected/desired behavior

Double-checlk if the filtering event should be fired a second time.
The e.filter and e.sender.dataSource.filter().filters[0] should return the same value.

Hi Vivek,

Thank you for reporting this and for providing the details.

After reviewing the case, we determined the behavior is not considered a bug. In the provided example, the value method is called and the applied filter is cleared afterwards. This behavior is expected and documented.

The API reference for the value method states: "The widget will clear the applied filter if a new value is set. Thus it ensures that the original/whole data set is available for selection."

With the above said, we are closing this report as "Declined". If you have any further questions or run into a different scenario, please share updated details, and we will investigate it.

Regards,
Neli
