2301.1 compatible: Invalid property type names

[pkoellner-extern-arvato]

Hi, I am integrating core-forms-cmcc-11-2301.1.tar.gz into a workspace with cm11 2301.1 and a postgresql 42.5.1 database for the repository. After adding the extension and starting the content-server, I get the following error:

content-management-server | [ERROR] (Init Process) hox.corem.server.Server [] - Cannot startup due to malformed document type definition: Invalid names in document type definition: spamProtectionEnabled, reason is: Invalid property type name: spamProtectionEnabled, aborting

The Content Server Manual, 4.1. states:

Caution

The name can have a maximum length of 18 characters (DateProperty field names only 15 characters) and must not contain umlauts or other special characters ("§", "&", ...). Two fields in a content type different only in upper or lower case are not allowed. Furthermore, a name's last character must not be an underscore, since these field names are reserved for CoreMedia.

"spamProtectionEnabled" is 21 chars long, "pageableFormEnabled" 19 chars, which is too long in both cases. This may work with some databases, but apparently not with postgresql.

As a workaround, I am changing them locally to "spamProtection" and "pageable", since the "Enabled" is implicated in the boolean value... (Replace all in project, preserve case: spamProtectionEnabled -> spamProtection,, pageableFormEnabled -> pageable, don't forget to rebuild studio-client after change - no longer integrated with maven)

Hi, thanks for the report.
You are right, we did not take "Content Server Manual, 4.1." into account when introducing the new docType properties.

Unfortunately, if we change the property names now, it would cause migration troubles for projects using compatible databases, e.g. MySQL. We could rename the properties in the docTypes.xml and make the ContentBeans and Studio-Forms backwards compatible. Do you have any idea, how such a compatible studio component could look like?
@FabitUsJanHendrikPopp have you ever built such a studio component?
