Error description

• same as defect 31211
  When setting a decorated value descriptor on a BOM class typed
  as a string:
          property "DecoratedValueDescriptor.prefix" "#"
          property valueDescriptor "com.accovia.location.
  Location#Decorated(ilog.rules.brl.String)"
  entering values of that class in a decision table causes the
  value to be truncated: the first and last character of the
  string are removed.
  For example the following entries:
     a
     bb
     ccc
     dddd
  end up to display as:
        a
        # ""
        # "c"
        # "dd"
  
  The issue also reproduced if the values are set with variables :
  
   the display result is the same as above with a. bb. ccc. ddd
  being local variables defined in a variable set.
  In that case, only the variable 'a' remains valid, while the
  name of the others is truncated, which causes them to be seen
  as values
  

Local fix

• Enter values between quotes and use variables with one-
  character names.
  

Problem summary

• problem with the values once edited they contain the decorated
  text and must be processed as is...
  

Problem conclusion

• Thevcode  has been fixed by normalizing a decorated value when
  editing in place (in a cell).
  a => # "a"
  ab => # "ab"
  abc => # "abc"
  Unless the value is chosen from a combo box or a value editor
  In order to edit an expression (including access to variable)
  the user must use the edit bar
