How to instantiate a property within a Control
I'm creating a cusom Control for input and at runtime everything works as long as the property is already on the clipboard but fails and generates a stack trace if the property is not instantiated beforehand.
How do you instantiate a property via Java or JSP from the context of a Control?

Turns out it was just an index issue in an included stream rule. Apparently Pega actually does instantiate the property if needed.

Not sure what you are looking for exactly, but a couple of possible ways on my understanding of your requirement
a. within your control, you can set the property value similar to this
ClipboardPage pg_primaryPage=tools.getPrimaryPage();
ClipboardProperty testProp= pg_primaryPage.getProperty(".TestProp");
testProp.setValue("HelloWorld");
b. Within a Section context, you can use the field 'Default value' to instantiate the value of property.
