<div class="jive-rendered-content"><p>hi,</p><p>what is the best way to service dynamically-loaded enum-typed work item parameters ?</p><p>I need to define a custom service task with an input parameter whose list of available values is loaded from db (or some other external source).</p><p>Then I would like to display it in jbpm web designer as a drop-down - so the user could just pick the right value.</p><p>There is a EnumDataType but it seems that it's a simple wrapper for static Java enumerations with fixed value list. </p><p>Should I use ObjectDataType with className java.util.Map<String, Object> (or simply 'java.util.Map') instead ?</p><p>Or maybe a custom-defined data type would be necessary ?</p><p>How to add a custom editor to view it as a drop-down list in jBPM web designer ?</p><p>I read  {thread:id=731208}this discussion{thread} about adding custom editors to web designer and since version 2.2 is out i presume this extensibility is now a standard feature ?</p><p>How to add such custom editor ?</p><p>Thanks in advance for your assistance.</p><p>regards</p><p>Simon</p><p>BTW, i use jbpm 5.4.0.Final along with web designer 2.4.0.Final</p></div>
