Here is how filters work in XML Views - see the 2 examples below I coded for you (use the jsbin links if they don't run here on stackoverflow). They both use the Northwind OData service. As you will see it's pretty much straight forward:
<Select
items="{
path : '/Orders',
sorter: {
path: 'OrderDate',
descending: true
},
filters : [
{ path : 'ShipCountry', operator : 'EQ', value1 : 'Brazil'}
]
}">
Of course, you can add multiple filters as well (see the second example below).
However, keep in mind that the filters are declared in the XMLView. Unfortunately, UI5 is currently not so dynamic to allow changing such filters defined in an XMLView dynamically by only using the binding syntax in the XMLView. Instead you would need some piece of JavaScript code. In your case you could listen for the change event of the other field. In the event handler you would then simply create a new Filter and apply it:
var oSelect, oBinding, aFilters, sShipCountry;
sFilterValue = ...; // I assume you can get the filter value from somewhere...
oSelect = this.getView().byId(...); //get the reference to your Select control
oBinding = oSelect.getBinding("items");
aFilters = [];
if (sFilterValue){
aFilters.push( new Filter("ShipCountry", FilterOperator.Contains, sFilterValue) );
}
oBinding.filter(aFilters, FilterType.Application); //apply the filter
That should be all you need to do. The examples below do not use any JavaScript code for the filter, but I guess you get the idea.
