I have a (Oracle) table where boolean attributes are defined as char(1) with 
possible values "Y", "N", or NULL (is equivalent to "N"). Due to 3rd party apps 
I cannot change the database to char(5) and use the standard modelling 
technique of toString() and valueOf() with Strings "true" and "false" in the 
DB. How can I model such an attribute  in a D2W compliant way? I have tried the 
following: rename the attribute in EOModel to "publishedYN" but leave the 
column name "published" and added published() and setPublished() to the 
business logic. This works and I can e.g. use ERD2WCustomeQueryBoolean in my 
query page configuration. However when I click query I get the following 
exception:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: sqlStringForKeyValueQualifier: attempt to 
generate SQL for com.webobjects.eocontrol.EOKeyValueQualifier (publish = 
(java.lang.Boolean)'false') failed because attribute identified by key 
'publish' was not reachable from from entity 'TechdocType'

Yes, there is no such attribute and thus the crash makes sense. How can I fix 
this? Any ideas? Unfortunately it is not possible to extend java.lang.Boolean

Help and lots of thanks
