> Property defined with a UNDEFINED property type are not handled correctly
> during export: the "real" property type assigned on creation is not preserved.
> If you try to export a Boolean property (which is set as UNDEFINED in
> configuration) and reimport it the value returned by getType() will change.
> fron jcr specs:
> ...
> Returns the type of this Property. The type returned
> is that which was set at property creation. Note that
> for some property p, the type returned by
> p.getType() may differ from the type returned by
> p.getDefinition.getRequiredType() only in the
> case where the latter returns UNDEFINED. The type of
> a property instance is never UNDEFINED (it must
> always have some actual type). See 6.2.5 Property
> Types and 6.7.18 Discovery of Constraints on Existing
> Items.
> --------------------------------------------------
> int UNDEFINED
> This constant can be used within a property definition (see
> 6.7.6 Property Definitions) to specify that the property in
> question may be of any type. However, it cannot be the
> actual type of any property instance. For example it will
> never be returned by Property.getType and (in level 2
> implementations) it cannot be assigned as the type when
> creating a new property.
