BooleanFormPropertyRenderer renders to Button

bernd_ruecker

A boolean Form Property renders to a button in the current explorer.

This is completly unintuitive and actually I have no idea how to control the boolean flag now on the gui 😉 Can you help me out? I did find the BooleanFormPropertyRenderer and see how it is rendered, but not how the value is written back quickly.

And can we change this to a checkbox which is what I would expect here?

Cheers
Bernd

Hi Bernd,

Should be a checkbox indeed, I'll fix this… The value of the button is actually always false (unless it's a toggle button, which can have it's state changed). No error was thrown since the Button Field value type is Boolean.

Thanks!

Hi,

Is that available on Trunk / Branch ? is it possible to build a version with this correction ?

Hi Meditel.

It is committed in trunk and will be released with Activiti 5.8. You can build a release from the trunk head yourself, sure 🙂

Hi,

I have build explorer2 from Trunk and successfully deployed.
I have added a checkBox to a form like this :

<br><activiti:formProperty id="test" name="test" type="boolean" variable="false" required="true" readable="true" writable="true"></activiti:formProperty><br>

The boolean type is perfectly rendered as a checkBox, but i have this exception :
Cause: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: CheckBox only accepts Boolean values
What is going wrong ?

Best Regards,
Meditel

I tried also without the variable="false" and got the same exception

The variable is not the VALUE, but the name of the variable to use for that property. So you should have a variable with name "test" of type boolean, don't specify the "variable" attribute.

Hi,

'variable' attribute is automatically filled by the Eclipse plugin, so this might be a plugin bug.
Eclipse plugin should put 'value' instead of 'variable'.

Hi,

Right this is something that needs to be improved in the Eclipse Designer.
It's however not so straightforward to solve this, but I'll have a look at it.

Best regards,
