Custom form type &BAR Upload:Activiti REST versus A.Explorer

[udoderk]

Hi all,
i have defined the new custom form type myFormType with name 'myT', registered it like userFormType (on
\webapps\activiti-explorer\WEB-INF\applicationContext.xml and
\webapps\activiti-explorer\WEB-INF\activiti-ui.context.xml files).
The needed custom java classes are placed into .jar file.
Web Container (tomcat) was restarted.
Now, if i try to REST upload using the .bar file, that has an xml file with custom form type myFormType, the exception is thrown.
But if i just generate the .bar file with same custom form type, i can upload it without problems via activiti explorer web application.

I'm tried to copy the .jar file with needed custom java classes into webapps\activiti-rest\WEB-INF\lib but that action has no effect:-(((

Must be custom form type exrta registered???

P.S The exception stack trace:

The problem solution:
Edit the activiti (spring) configuration activiti-context.xml, that placed under \activiti-rest\WEB-INF\classes :
register the custom form types ids within processEngineConfiguration bean like registering on the applicationContext.xml of Activiti Explorer:

<bean id="processEngineConfiguration" class="org.activiti.spring.SpringProcessEngineConfiguration">
….
<property name="customFormTypes">
      <list>
        <ref bean="myCustomFormType1"/>
….
      </list>
    </property>
  </bean>And then register in same file the java classes

    <!–  Custom form types –>
  <bean id="myCustomFormType1" class="main.activiti.engine.formtype.MyCustomFormType1"/>
The activiti must be restarted.
