SMW 1.8.x

Hello,


semantic properties do not show up on factbox if programatically generated via PHP.

Someone allready commented this with the advice to invalidate the cache without explaining how.

I guess I do this and it seems to be a real bug not a cache problem.

Here comes the code...every tip/hint/fix is very welcome!

[...]
SMWDIProperty::registerProperty( '___EXIFSOFTWARE', '_str','MyNewProp'); SMWDIProperty::registerPropertyAlias( '___EXIFSOFTWARE', 'MyNewProp' ) [...]

 public function UpdateDataBefore($store, $data ){
        global $wgUser,$wgEnableParserCache,$wgParser;
        $wgParser->disableCache();
        $wgEnableParserCache = false;
   
        $str = "EinTestString";  
        $property = new SMWDIProperty( '___EXIFSOFTWARE' );
        $dataItem = new SMWDIString( $str );
        $data->addPropertyObjectValue($property, $dataItem);

[...]

PS: 

1. The Properties show up on Special:Browse but not on the factbox!
Also the PHP-generated properties are automatically declared as special properties...I don't know why. Could someone explain?

2. If someone could provide some code snipped too, to demonstrate how to manipulate -->$data<-- on the fly in an UpdateDataBefore-handler this would be very very nice and open some doors to new innovations. This doc here is not enough:
