I have a need to create multi-value properties that either contain no value or
just a single value.
In JSon the looks like this:
{
“noValueMulti”: [],
“singleMultiValue”:[“single”]
}
Because the Repository Initializer is using a comma separated list as indicator
when to create a multi-value I cannot do either of these.
I would suggest that you allow something like this:
set properties on /pathC
set noMultiValue{String[]} to
set singleMultiValue{String[]} to “single”
end
Cheers - Andy
