JComboBox content disappear once I select one

Question

I have a JCombobox whose content is populated this way:

List<MyClass> l = getList();
for(MyClass ll : l)
  combo.addItem(ll.toString());
combo.setSelectedIndex(0);

Everything's ok till I click on combo in order to show item list: when I click selected item disappears (but list appears) when I select an item on list whole combobox disappears!! Why?

Show us more code. We cannot guess what is going on just from these 4 lines. — Dan D., Aug 22 '12 at 09:49

For JComboBoxs (add, remove, manage) Items to use is the ComboBoxModel.
JComboBox and its Model is based on arrays Vector<> or Object[], since Java2.
All updates (JComboBox and its Model) must be done on Event Dispatch Thread.
