Hi Dave,
thanks for tracking this down. Now that you've mentioned a specific
commit, it all makes sense to me know. My take on this though is that
it is working correctly now, and was working before purely by
accident. So I guess I'll just add a note to the UPGRADE-NOTES.txt,
but I don't think we should roll back this behavior.
BTW going through my mailbox, I've seen the exact same PG Exception
when trying to bind a String to a boolean parameter back in July 2007.
So we are actually getting more consistent now, with all types working
the same way.

Andrus,
I finally looked into this, and I found the problem. I opened up
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAY-1298 for the bug. It's not
a major regression, but it could be annoying for users upgrading from
earlier versions of Cayenne.

I don't recall an intentional change to disable automated type
conversion.
It was not supported before, so I guess it was purely coincidental
that it
worked on a particular database with a particular driver.

Trying to use the latest trunk code, I came across some behavior
that
has changed. I used to be able to pass
DataObjectUtils.objectForPK a
primary key that was a String, and Cayenne would automatically
typecast this to the real PK type (such as String -> Integer).
Now it
seems like the typecasting does not occur, causing an exception on
the
query with my database.
Was this change intentional? If not, I'll open a bug report with
more
detail.
