Problem description
When trying to save an object in the Java User Interface with AE version 12.1 or later, an error like this appears:
U04001714 the specified documentation name _@Operation contains an invalid character
Root cause
If any
structured documentation tabs are defined for an object type in
UC_OBJECT_DOCU, objects of that type will be affected by this bug. It will not be possible to use the JUI to save changes to objects of that type. Structured documentation tabs are ones whose names begin with the @ character. Object types with only documentation tabs defined (ones whose names do not begin with the @ character) are not impacted. In the above example,
Operation
is the name of a structured documentation tab.
Background
Starting with version 12.1, The Automic Web Interface (AWI) replaced the Java User Interface (JUI) as the standard user interface to the Automation Engine. The JUI was deprecated. As a result, Automic stopped updating the JUI, and stopped testing new versions of the AE with the old JUI. As a result, changes that break JUI capabilities began to creep into the Automation Engine code. This is one of them.
