Scott, Dain,
sorry for having gotten this totally wrong. I was in a bad mood, because I had to change my code, not having the time to wait for a fix. The word 'cool' reminded me of an interview with Bill Gates, that was printed in a local IT magazine, where he answered to the question why so many users of software from Redmond complain about lots of problems: "Because they think it's cool. You can go and tell your colleagues: Been there, done that." (from memory). I really appreciate your work and your product. It's a great achievement.

There was no implication that the users were idiots. Try reading the mail a little more carefully before deciding you need to rant. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Scott Stark Chief Technology Officer JBoss Group, LLC xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: "Georg Schmid" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Dain Sundstrom'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "'Stephen Coy'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "'jboss-user'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, May 13, 2002 11:53 PM Subject: RE: [JBoss-user] Fwd: Bug when converting EJB QL boolean comparisons from true and false to 1 and 0 > > Dain, > > this is a quite obvious bug (if you ever tried to select on a boolean > EB field backed by an Oracle table), so why are you so cool about it?? > > I have a EB with a mostRecent boolean field, and because of this bug > there is no way to make a custom finder like > > select object(myEB) > from MyEBTable > where myEB.mostRecent = true > > work. > > Please don't get into the habit of thinking your users are idiots... > > --- five lines of additional rant suppressed -- > > Georg > > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Dain > Sundstrom > Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 07:35 > To: Stephen Coy > Cc: jboss-user > Subject: Re: [JBoss-user] Fwd: Bug when converting EJB QL boolean > comparisons from true and false to 1 and 0 > > > Cool, can you post a bug report, so I don't forget to make the change? > > Thanks, > > -dain > > Stephen Coy wrote: > > > Sorry Dain, > > > > I was trying to point out that not all SQL implementations support > > the use of literal "true" and "false" values. > > > > Therefore, we need to get them mapped to "1" and "0" respectively in > > this situation. > > > > On Tuesday, May 14, 2002, at 02:53 PM, Dain Sundstrom wrote: > > > >> This is like pulling teeth.
