Error when trying to extended workflow via code extension

Question

I’m playing around with extending workflows. In this case I’ve added an Action to SOOrderEntry in my graph extension. I’ve created a workflow extension as well. While my code compiles, I get an error displayed on the login screen:

When extending a cache, cross references are not permitted: CustomerOEMods.Workflow.SOOrderEntry_Workflow -> CustomerOEMods.Workflow.SOOrderEntry_Workflow.

The class definition for my workflow class is as follows:

public class SOOrderEntry_Workflow : PXGraphExtension<SOOrderEntry_Workflow, SOOrderEntry>

{

}

The definition of my graph extension of SOOrderEntry is:

public class SOOrderEntry_Extension : PXGraphExtension<PX.Objects.SO.SOOrderEntry>

{

}

Are these definitions incorrect? I’m following T270 as it covers adding an action to the SOInvoiceEntry workflow.

I’m not sure what I’m missing.

I believe because you’re naming your version identically to the original, it’s getting confused with itself. You could either rename your version or fully qualify the original graph extension:

using SO = PX.Objects.SO;

public class SOOrderEntry_Workflow : PXGraphExtension<SO.SOOrderEntry_Workflow, SOOrderEntry>
{

}

Thank you! I figured it was a C# thing vs a framework thing. I just wasn’t sure how to get out of the circular naming loop.
