But here is the gotcha!
in Entity Modeler (or hand editing the plist file) you must use
userInfo = {default = 0; };
note the zero NOT false!!
if you use 'false' or 'true', EM creates the migrations okay, however creating
a new object in D2W throws errors:
Apr 19 18:05:52 ASBriefsD2W[57541] WARN NSLog -
<com.webobjects.appserver._private.WOComponentRequestHandler>: Exception
occurred while handling request:
java.lang.NumberFormatException
[2012-4-19 18:5:52 EDT] <WorkerThread0> java.lang.NumberFormatException
at java.math.BigDecimal.<init>(BigDecimal.java:459)
at java.math.BigDecimal.<init>(BigDecimal.java:728)
so the userInfo = {default = 0; };
thank you John for pointing out the zero.
