I just grabbed designer 5.9 and I noticed that the data grid property type is now missing from custom extension properties. I was very excited about this feature, even though it did not fully work. Is this property type going to reappear at some point?
Yes we removed that for this release because we need to think a bit further about how to serialize the complex values to the BPMN XML. In the next release we want this to be added again. If you have thoughts about a solution please post it here.
This feature would be most welcome.. really need the ability to pass data sets to Java classes in a manner supported all the way from the designer. I was also super exited when I saw it in the documentation and then equally disappointed when I saw the note about data not being injected correctly at present 🙂 Looking forward to the next release!
