21.19 Designer Fails on Linux to Open Data Item Mapping of a Workflow Activity Containing Non-ASCII Characters

Eclipse Standard Widget Toolkit Table Editor does not support non-ASCII characters. Designer does not properly render the Data Item Mapping view if the workflow activity includes a script containing localized strings with non-ASCII characters.

To resolve this issue, perform the following actions:

  1. Create an external ECMAScript object for the workflow activity and add the content of the activity as a function to the ECMAScript object.

  2. Open your provisioning request definition in the Provisioning view, right-click it, and then select Properties.

  3. Add the newly created ECMAScript object as an external script under Global Scripts.

    The script is incorporated into the provisioning request definition by the reference using the supplied ECMAScript DN.

  4. Click OK.

  5. Click the Workflow tab to display the workflow.

  6. Click the activity, and then click the Data Item Mapping tab.

  7. Use the newly created script as an inline method in the Data Item Mapping view.

Alternatively, change the localized strings to English.
