This converts individual objects passed in through the `array` parameter to `<option>` tags when Select2 is initialized. This removes a lot of duplicate code from the `ArrayAdapter`, and keeps everything closer to the native `<select>` element. This introduces a breaking change from previous versions of Select2, where the initial value for array data was blank, even if a blank option was not present in the original array of objects. Now the first object passed in will be selected by default, following the behavior of a standard `<select>` element. This breaking change does not affect `<select multiple="multiple">` elements, which by default have no selection.
Select2
Select2 is a jQuery-based replacement for select boxes. It supports searching, remote data sets, and pagination of results.
To get started, checkout examples and documentation at http://ivaynberg.github.io/select2
Use cases
- Enhancing native selects with search.
- Enhancing native selects with a better multi-select interface.
- Loading data from JavaScript: easily load items via ajax and have them searchable.
- Nesting optgroups: native selects only support one level of nested. Select2 does not have this restriction.
- Tagging: ability to add new items on the fly.
- Working with large, remote datasets: ability to partially load a dataset based on the search term.
- Paging of large datasets: easy support for loading more pages when the results are scrolled to the end.
- Templating: support for custom rendering of results and selections.
