I agree with that conclusion, with certain functions such as getDate() it wouldn't be valid until insert. At that point the object could pull back the correct information.

In that case the only real solution is to allow torque to gracefully handle default formula's and let the database do it's job. As far as using the object before-hand though I don't know how that would be handled, perhaps some method to indicate whether... I have no idea. At this point, this it totally in your realm :)

I do not see any possibility that the object could handle a database
function on construction. The object would have to ask the database to
execute the function, and this process is different on different databases.
On Oracle, for example, one would have to do something like (Select
getDate() from dual), and this would certainly not work on any other
database.

The only possibility I see at the moment is to refresh the object from the
db and then get the inserted value.

On insertion that sounds reasonable. But how would the object handle it
on construction? Especially if I decided to try to use the data in the
object before inserting it. I don't have as much experience using Torque
as I would like but I can certainly see a lot of little holes that would
have to be stepped over. :)

Well, sure, the idea is not to support the function in java, but maybe
one
could support the function in the database. So if you would insert a new
object with a default value "getDate()" of the column some_date, and
would
set some_date in the java object to null and save the object, maybe the
database could use the default value for the some_date column upon
insert.
Not sure whether this can be done, though.

From my limited view it seems that it would be pretty difficult to
support some if not all DB functions as the database would support
them.
It would at least take a trip to the database which would be...


cumbersome.

You are right, default values with sql functions in them are not


supported


by Torque. This is known, there is also an issue in scarab for this.
I should look into it some time whether this can be fixed.

I am using the following:

Torque Version: 3.2-rc1
Using: ANT, MSSQL

I was able to get around the problem but I believe I now know what
the
issue was. Inside of the generated schema it was calling a function
'getDate()' that really didn't exist anywhere. That's because I used


the


default value of (getDate()) in the MSSQL table schema. So I imagine
that functions don't carry over so well as defaults in table schema
while using torque.

Hi,

to help you with this, some more information would be needed
- the part of the schema which caused the problem
- the version of Torque you are using
- a relevant snippet of generated code around


BaseQuestionnaire.java:45


where the comile error occurs.

I am trying to compile the Torque generated classes and I am
running
into a problem with a getDate() method. The following error is




returned:

Any quick advice would be nice. I don't understand the purpose of


this


method or how to regen the classes in another way where this error




won't




crop up. I am loathe to edit it out of the class because I don't
know
the implications and I don't want to have to edit it every time the
Object Model is built.

Thanks, -Trey
