Form Processor not able to generate form

Hi, I'm trying to display a custom form using Alfresco.util.PopupManager.displayForm() however I'm having an issue trying to use my own form processor. It works without a hitch if I use the itemKind: "type", so the type processor but if I try to use my own "adduser" processor it just shows a blank f

Solved this by doing the following:

Error was "please provide a namespace resolver" when using super.generate(). This is because in the code for the superclass it references the null value this.namespace.

I did not solve that issue and rather did a work around, I copied a lot of the code from the default form processor (stuff like getTypeItem(), generateDefaultFields(), makeItemData()...) and changed stuff as needed. The real key for me was that I needed to use fieldProcessorRegistry.buildField(fieldName, data); in order to use the xml file as a field definition.

After adding that and also for some reason needing to set

Item formItem = f.getItem();
formItem.setType("scwf:adduser");
formItem.setUrl("/api/classes/scwf_adduser");

Everything works as intended and I can safely override the default submit url to do my own parsing of the form results.
