Issue
- FreeMarker Engine interface has 2 variables: 'Restricted classes' and 'Restricted variables'.
Open user interface: Control Panel > System Settings> Template Engines > FreeMarker Engine (in DXP 7.4).
- There is no UI control to remove the first item in the list. Unlike item number 2 and higher,
the only way to remove the first item is to make it empty using [Backspace] to delete its value.
- However, the side effect is that users end up with the value of 'Restricted classes' as:
[, java.lang.ClassLoader, java.lang.Thread]
where the first value is empty instead of the more reasonable value of:
[java.lang.ClassLoader, java.lang.Thread]
- The implementation of this UI is incomplete.
Environment
- Liferay DXP 7.1
- Liferay DXP 7.2
- Liferay DXP 7.3
- Liferay DXP 7.4
Resolution
- The incomplete UI of the FreeMarker Engine is a known DXP bug that is being addressed by LPS-81539.
