Description Hongchang Lin

Steps to reproduce:
1.New a dataset;
2.Double click the dataset to starts up dataset edit dialog;
3.Choose "Filters" option;
4.Press "New" button to starts up filter edit dialog;
5.Assigns an expression to the filter conditon instead of select a column value from the drop down list;
6.Choose a operator;
7.Press the arrow button to select the "<Select Value...>" option

Expected result:
Starts up the select value dialog and list the available values based on the assigned expression.
For example: 
Assign an expression: row["CITY"] + row["OFFICECODE"]
Then the value list probably like:
Tokyo01
NYC02
London03
...

Actual result:
Given a warning "Value list unavailable with given expression"

I think this case can be supported.

For select value dialog in DataEditor, we need not support this, for in Data Set Editor we cannot define column bindings.

For select value dialog in Property Editor, GUI would responsible for it. DtE already provide api in DataRequestSession class to support this.

Reassign to Dte to see if there's any global solution for this feature.

We are looking forward to an overall enhancement of select value so that it can not only consume expression but also allow aggregations. Suggest to do this in 2.5.1.

Supply the method getSelectValueFromBinding( String expression,
			DataSetHandle dataSetHandle, Iterator binding, boolean inclFilter ) in org.eclipse.birt.report.designer.data.ui.util.SelectValueFetcher. GUI need to change related code in filter, map, highlight etc.
