I've been working with WO for several years now and have never used
Boolean data type in my model. I've always used simple Integers to
represent boolean values where 0 is false and 1 is true.
I'm just curious why you find it necessary to use the Boolean class in
you model. Maybe there is a good reason for this, which is why I'm
asking.
Using the Integer (Number) class works fine for checkboxes,
WOConditionals and anything else I've tried in WOBuilder.
When I want a primitive boolean I just use something like:
boolean myBoolean = (myValue == new Integer(1));

Hello -
I changed all my castings in my base classes to Boolean from Number.
The good is that I can use this Boolean directly in WOBuilder! Before
I had to create a shadow method isTrue, etc.
The Bad is I don't know how to generate my base classes automatically
anymore via EOGenerator and my EOModel. Seems like whatever I do
it always makes them Number.
