[midPoint] How to properly edit ressource

[HURTEVENT VINCENT]

Hi Ivan,

sorry, I messed up with my ML subscriptions so I’m replying by opening a new thread.

We’re using version 3.3.1.

You can see our resource file here : <http://pastebin.com/cwZngWDu>

We can import the resource successfully but when we edit directly from web UI, from the wizard or XML editor, the line with xmlns:ext is always deleted and references to extension/ext:attribute are lost and lead to unknown ext namespace error.

Edit and update a resource by re-importing the xml file (checking overwriting existing object) is not a problem ? Don’t we lose shadow account and links with user objects ?
