PCF : Add Lookup type for properties

[TanguyT]

Currently, it is not possible to define a property for attribute type Lookup.

Please add support for this type

[HemantG]

Lookup has complex set of APIs to function in full capacity and we are evaluating if we can release the support in staged manner. This workitem is under review currently.

I do understand that some type of attributes can be harder to integrate (especially regarding Canvas app), but I really think all data type from CDS should be supported

[HemantG]

Currently planned for the next semester (April 2020) - please note that actual delivery dates can change .

Will this be in the new Aril 2020 release? @HemantG 

I couldn't find any further information regarding this change.

[HemantG]

This didnt make it to April release but I am trying to prioritize this for next one.

@HemantG, is this about binding a lookup field to a property of a PCF control, or about binding a PCF control to a lookup field, or both?

Thanks!

@HemantG checking in on this, whats the likely timeframe for this to be released?

@HemantG thanks for prioritizing this important feature. Let us know if it will be in 2020 Wave 2

@EvertJanvdBosch someone correct me if I'm wrong, but this is related to binding a PCF control to a lookup field. Lookup controls are not supported when defining types in the type group in the control manifest: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/manifest-schema-reference/t...

[TomPhillips]

Some movement, looks Lookup properties have been added to the Control Manifest in the latest release of pcf-scripts - https://www.npmjs.com/package/pcf-scripts/v/1.3.6

@HemantG Any news on this one?
