[midPoint] Connector ENUM attribute

[Radovan Semancik]

Hi Martin,

It looks like enums are not supported by the ConnId. Neither as 
configuration items nor resource object attributes. See 
org.identityconnectors.framework.common.FrameworkUtil.isSupportedConfigurationType(Class<?>). 
I think that support for enums might be possible to add to ConnId, 
although it might be a bit tricky because the values have to be 
serialized and deserialized when working with remote connectors. Anyway, 
the right place to discuss this is the ConnId mailing list:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/connid-users

I can only promise that if there will be a enum support in ConnId then 
midPoint will support that feature as soon as possible. I would 
personally like to see this feature, especially if it extends to support 
both as configuration items and resource object attributes. And we are 
definitely able to implement it both in ConnId and midPoint. However, 
our plan for unfunded features are currently quite full, so we do not 
have the capacity to invest in this ourselves unless some external 
funding for the feature is secured.
