Description John Sanda 2010-08-11 02:03:21 UTC

Description of problem:
If a server plugin defines an operation that takes a complex property as a property (in the form of a list/map), the UI does not allow you to specify values for that complex parameter type. When you click the "Add New" button the request sends you right back to plugin-details.xhtml. The UI for this is currently in JSF and handled by the custom config component which is used extensively in a number of other places. The problem is that some of the JSF/Facelets code, along with corresponding navigation rules, that are required when using the config component, simply were not implemented.

Since the UI port to GWT is underway it probably does not make sense to fix this in JSF code. I wanted to report it though so that we have it documented.
