Android Question [SOLVED]JavaObject RunMethod Perform Click Error on B4XComboBox

[mechanicaltesla]

Hi,

1. I have a simple example of B4XComboBox and Spinner. when I do JavaObject. RunMethod("performClick",Null) it works on Spinner but not on B4XComboBox (see attached picture)
2. Is it possible to have "perform click" another way/other means for B4XComboBox?
3. Any help is appreciated

'This event will be called once, before the page becomes visible.
Private Sub B4XPage_Created (Root1 As B4XView)
    Root = Root1
    Root.LoadLayout("MainPage")
  
    B4XComboBox1.cmbBox.AddAll(Array As String("Monday","tuesday","Friday","test1"))
    Spinner1.AddAll(Array As String("Monday","tuesday","Friday","test2"))
End Sub

'You can see the list of page related events in the B4XPagesManager object. The event name is B4XPage.

Sub Label1_Click
    Dim j As JavaObject = B4XComboBox1
    j.RunMethod("performClick",Null)
End Sub

Sub Label2_Click
    Dim j As JavaObject = Spinner1
    j.RunMethod("performClick",Null)
End Sub

Error for Label1 Clicked for B4XComobox1

performClick is a method present in some native views like spinner and button.

B4XComboBox is not a native view, you cannot manage it with javaobject as if it were native.

try this:

Dim NativeSpinner As Spinner = B4XComboBox1.cmbBox
Dim j As JavaObject = NativeSpinner 
j.RunMethod("performClick",Null)

Any help is appreciated

Would something like this suit your need.

Sub Label1_Click
    Dim j As JavaObject = B4XComboBox1.cmbBox
    j.RunMethod("performClick",Null)
    Log(B4XComboBox1.SelectedItem)
    Label1.Text=B4XComboBox1.SelectedItem
End Sub

Sub Label2_Click
    Dim j As JavaObject = Spinner1
    j.RunMethod("performClick",Null)
    Log(Spinner1.SelectedItem)
    Label2.Text=Spinner1.SelectedItem
End Sub

Thanks a lot Star-Dust and Mahares actually both methods work.
