mattcasters opened a new pull request, #8673: URL: https://github.com/apache/hop/pull/8673
The User Defined Java Class page listed the dialog options without saying which method runs, how a class reads a field, or what the info, target, and Test class controls actually do. A few of the code samples did not match the current API. The page now follows the transform: the class body Janino compiles, the `init` / `processRow` / `dispose` lifecycle, and a complete example that reads parameters and input fields and writes an output field. It explains why an info hop is not the main input, that both the info and target tables can hold several rows, what a tag is for, and why those rows are still required after the hops are drawn. Test class is described as a throwaway preview on generated rows, including the info and target stand-ins. The old samples that called `inputRowMeta()` and `getInteger` on a field helper are replaced with the methods the class actually has. This is a documentation-only change, so no Maven tests were run. fixes #2368 ------------------------ Thank you for your contribution!
