Hi.
Within my application, I want to provide a very rudimentary form builder feature for my end users. The APEX_ITEM API is perfect for this - I can construct dynamic content within my PL/SQL code and render it directly onto the webpage. I can choose the page item type and its label among many other things.
However, APEX_ITEM is a legacy API and was deprecated during previous releases. I understand from forums discussing this that while further development on the API is halted for the foreseeable future, the API itself will be available for use since there are a lot of live applications depending on this and migration would be a massive undertaking.
Did you face a similar issue? If so, were you able to find an alternative? Please note that I am looking for free workarounds and not paid plugins.
Thanks.
