PDF Tools

This is the feedback I got from Appian support for the issue with deploying the plug-in code. 

To resolve this issue, you will need to change the plugin code to explicitly reference PdfField?list^1 so that it matches the internally mapped version of the CDT, then recompile the plugin and attach the new .jar to this case. To do this, please identify each @Input and @Output of type "PdfFields" in the plugin code, the update its annotation following the Action section of KB-1097. For example, the error references the smart service "FillPDFPauseOnError," so you will need to make the following update in the file FillPDFPauseOnError.java:

Old:
@Input(required = Required.ALWAYS)
@Name("PdfFields")
public void setPdfFields(PdfField[] val) {
this.pdfFields = val;
}

New:
@Input(required = Required.ALWAYS)
@Name("PdfFields")
@Type(namespace = "">types.appiancorp.com/ps", name = "PdfField?list^1")
public void setPdfFields(PdfField[] val) {
this.pdfFields = val;
}

  Any plans to update a new version with these changes?  If not, I will plan on making these changes myself on my end.  Thanks!

Hi Raj,

We are in exactly the same situation. We are in need of this plugin, but with a version 1 reference for the PdfField cdt.

Did you manage to resolve this yet? And if so, how?

can you perhaps share a version of the plugin that references the ^1 of PdfField?

Thank you
