Wasn't this addressed by QFJ-288 ?
I can't seem to remember the syntax for the open-ended enum though, and I can't find any documentation for it.

Comment by Alvin Wang [ 04/Nov/08 ]

what do you mean "syntax"? a validation switch in the configruation file?

Hi Alvin,

Do you want to have a field containing an enum with a fixed number of values or an open-ended enum (with unknown number of values)?

Laurent, I want have a field containing an enum with a fixed number of values, but meanwhile I want QFJ have a validation switch that can bypass the checking of the valid value of that field to avoid "Value is incorrect (out of range) for this tag" rejection.
thanks

You can specify an "allowOtherValues" attribute in the data dictionary for the enumeration element. Perhaps we should consider supporting this is a session configuration?

yes, it would be very helpful to have a session configuration!
