Xrm.Attribute<any> instead of Xrm.OptionSetAttribute<boolean> generated for custom form

Description
I have added a custom account form and when I generate the type information with XrmDefinitelyTyped it generates Xrm.Attribute<any> instead of Xrm.OptionSetAttribute<boolean> for all "boolean" fields (e.g. donotemail) on the custom form. The type information for the default form is as expected.

For the default form I get this line in the .d.ts file:

interface Attributes extends Xrm.AttributeCollectionBase {
  [...]
  get(name: "donotemail"): Xrm.OptionSetAttribute<boolean>;
  [...]
}

For the custom form I get this line in the .d.ts file:

interface Attributes extends Xrm.AttributeCollectionBase {
  [...]
  get(name: "donotemail"): Xrm.Attribute<any>;
  [...]
}

I would expect that the type of donotemail is always Xrm.OptionSetAttribute<boolean>.

Environment

  • CRM/D365/CDS version: 9.1
  • Tool version: v.5.4.7

Question

  • What can I do to debug this issue? Can I turn on log files which could give me a hint?

Thank you for the work on this very helpful tool!

Just checked in 5.5.1, Not able to reproduce.
Could you retry? If the issue persists, could you elaborate on process of creating the form: Which form did you duplicate? (For Account, there's too many OotB forms for me to be able to identify one specific as "default")

I would expect this was the same issue as #232, that is, the field was shown in a custom control. That issue is fixed in 5.6.0.
