I take it you mean the has<fieldname> method. I'd rather work
 independent of wether descriptors are available, as much as
 possible. That means at generation time. The case of an optional
 string works fine by the way, I can just check for null, maybe
 it is a date issue.

I'll try to isolate the problem later.
