Hi -

I'm trying to write a custom filterResults method for an AutoComplete. (Hope this is the right place to post this!)

My datasource is an XHRDataSource, I have applyLocalFilter set to true, as well as queryMatchSubset, and I've set maxCacheEntries to 5 and minQueryLength is 3. .

The problem that I'm seeing is if the user types too much, and gets too few matches, then deleting some characters doesn't always return the full set of matches for the characters visible.
Inside my custom filterResults, I can see that the oFullResponse.results array gets smaller the more the user types.

I am assuming that, contrary to my expectations, oFullResponse contains the cached filtered list, and not the original unfiltered response.

If that's correct, is there a way to override this in XHRDatasource so that the oFullResponse always contains the full list? Or do I need to extend functiondatasource to do this?

Thanks for your help.
