Servoy aware property editors

Hi to the Servoy team,

I am building some new plugins and beans (hopefully open source), and I wanted to know if there was any possibility to use some of the nifty property editors, I am specially thinking of the Method editor and the DataProvider editor.

Is there any way that I could link my beans to these propery editors, or to have access to the underlying app with methods to retrieve forms and globals Function names, and DataProvider String?

Thanks for your advices,

Patrick,

We are thinking about using a descriptor attribute.
If your bean info class calls pd.setValue(“servoy_property_editor”, “dataProvider”) and the property type is String, Servoy Developer will use the data provider property editor we use for our elements.
Similar for other editor types.

Planned for release 4.2.

Rob,

you are the best! That will really help third party integrate their beans seamlessly in the Servoy environment!

Did I say somewhere that I can’t wait to see 4.2?
