Hi,

I have a lot of code that I am trying to write in the expression editor.

After saving code is getting trimmed.

I am not sure if there is any limit on the number of characters that are allowed inside Expression Editor.

Code is getting trimmed starting from the yellow highlighted color.

Can someone advise on this? Thanks.

Is this in the editor inside the process modeller? It has some known issues ...

Yes, the code is from the script task expression editor.

When something needs to be processed in a Script task it is best practice to create an expression rule for it. Both for readability and it avoid this issue.

Hi,

I would suggest you to move all your foreach logic inside expression rule. Pass your CDT data into your expression and use local variable to build your all foreach logic.

I would second this. You want to be able to unit test your expression rules as stand-alone objects and once you know they work, call them from the relevant object (in your case, the process model). You'll end up with a more robust solution and encounter fewer errors when testing.

Unless the code I'm writing is exceedingly simple I always put it in an expression rule and never directly in the expression editor in the process modeller.

I would suggest you to move your code to Expression rule and call that rule in Script task , this way you can avoid issues and it would be easy to debug the code as well
