What's your point Dave? I don't see how this would influence the
runtime binding of methods.
I've seen weird things happen if you try to do things to an object
without first inserting it into an EditingContext. Things that seem
totally unrelated to EOF. While I doubt it is actually the problem it
was the first thing that popped into my mind when you are getting
unexpected results from something as simple as this.
The other related thing I would ask is: Where are you calling this
method from? You aren't calling it from a constructor, are you?
This is the type of method I would expect that you would want to call
when creating an Invoice for the first time to setup default values.
For example, set it's status to "Open" or something.
If you are calling this method as part of first creating an invoice,
make sure you are doing it from awakeFromInsertion instead of the
constructor.
Unrelated, but also something to consider: What behavior do you expect
when the InvoiceStatus is set to null? (EOF does this when you delete
an invoice) Should it update the InvoiceStatusDate value then? If not
then you're if-statement should also check to be sure that the passed
value is not null.
if(value != null && value != invoiceStatus()) {
