Android Question B4a 5.8 beta Customproperties; long not known?

[DonManfred]

Today i tried to build my first b4a view wrapper with custom properties.

// Code in java wrapper
@DesignerProperties(values = {
        @Property(key="PrefixText", displayName="Prefix Text", defaultValue="", fieldType="String"),
        @Property(key="SuffixText", displayName="Suffix Text", defaultValue="", fieldType="String"),
        @Property(key="Countdown", displayName="Countdown time in ms", defaultValue="60000", fieldType="Long")
    })

I have tried Long and also long
Both seems not to be known

I get this alert when opening the designer

I´ve used String for now and parse the string to long in java as workaround

And it would be nice to add also "boolean" as it is a bit cumbersome to handle this type with a list of two strings ("true|false").

From SwitchviewWraper.java (b4a java examples):

@DesignerProperties(values = {
    @Property(key="Checked", displayName="Checked", defaultValue="False", fieldType="Boolean")
})

Ah ok. It is not listed in the documentation so I thought it was missing.

Long is indeed not supported. Note that for a countdown an int should be enough. With millisecond units the maximum value is about 25 days (2147483647 / 1000 / 3600 / 24).
