It must be a duck, cause calling this standard behavior is quackers. There are many issues with object fields. I for one refuse to use them (Yes I know how powerful they are and can be) as I do so much with sql and can not get them using a sql statement. I have commented before that 4D should not implement a ew data type for a field unless they also update sql in some way to accommodate it.
It would or examples be strange it they added a pony type fields like SQL already has and did not support the same. In fact there UUID implementation is strange as well. How do you tell if the field is a UUID - type = alpha and length = 0, when you get field properties Regards Chuck On Tue, Oct 31, 2017 at 4:09 PM, David Adams via 4D_Tech < [email protected]> wrote: > > It looks like this bug ACI0097454 was marked as Standard Behavior on > October 24th. > > Smells like a bug. > Looks like a bug. > Sounds like a bug. > Walks like a bug. > > I mean, if you have a light switch that gives you a shock every time you > touch it, you wouldn't say "Oh, it always does that.
