## FAQ
### Why doesn't the text composition system work well with onSearch in controlled mode?
Please use `onChange` to manage control state. `onSearch` is used for searching input which is not the same as `onChange`. Besides, clicking on the option will not trigger the `onSearch` event.

### Part of the api in v3 are not available in v4?
AutoComplete is an Input component that supports auto complete tips. As such, it should not support props like `labelInValue` that affect value display. In v3, the AutoComplete implementation can not handle the case where the `value` and `label` are identical. v4 not longer support `label` as the value input.
Besides, to unify the API, `dataSource` is replaced with `options`. You can migrate with the following change:
#### v3
```tsx
dataSource = ['light', 'bamboo'];
// or
dataSource = [
{ value: 'light', text: 'Light' },
{ value: 'bamboo', text: 'Bamboo' },
];
```
#### v4
```tsx
options = [
{ value: 'light', label: 'Light' },
{ value: 'bamboo', label: 'Bamboo' },
];
```
