Re: [jmoney-devel] mortgage/loan plugin

[Todd C. <tod...@gm...>]

Hi,

So I've got my plugin working with the JMoney app--the Loan Account
dummy prefs show up as a page in the Preferences.  But.  I can't get
my plugin to show up in the popup list of new accounts.  I'm extending
net.sf.jmoney.fields:

   <extension
         point=3D"net.sf.jmoney.fields">
      <extendable-property-set
            base-property-set=3D"net.sf.jmoney.currencyAccount"
            id=3D"loanAccount"
            info-class=3D"org.suppressingfire.chambery.LoanAccountInfo"/>
   </extension>

but when I step through NavigationView.makeActions():

=09=09for (Iterator iter =3D
CapitalAccountInfo.getPropertySet().getDerivedPropertySetIterator();
iter.hasNext(); ) {
=09=09=09final PropertySet derivedPropertySet =3D (PropertySet)iter.next();

LoanAccount is not among the derived property sets (only BankAccount).
 I only have the bare amount of code in place to run, essentially
copied from BankAccount.

Am I missing something obvious to include the LoanAccount with other
CapitalAccounts?

Thanks,

Todd
