Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite - Data provider field in select box

I'm trying to create a select box inside a new form definition that show options catched from an external DB (MySQL). I already tried to use this "Data provider" field but it's always empty, even if I configure a new "Data sets" with my external DB... Or, maybe, there is another solution?

Someone could help me? Thanks :)

As you can see, this field with the red dot is empty .-.

A data provider is a java class the implement org.jbpm.formModeler.core.config.SelectValuesProvider interface.

  1. Create that implementation
  2. Build the project and place the jar in the Business Central libraries (META-INF/lib)
  3. You'll find the data provider in the selector.

Here an example: RestDataProvider

In the Java code, you can place your logic to retrive the list from a SQL DB.
