Hi everybody
I have a problem with an old schema that I had to update.
I added a boolean property to an entity. Hibernate updated the schema, but when loading data it fails because NULL is found where a bit value was expected.
Is there a trick or workaround to have Hibernate set false when updating the schema, or alternatively transform the NULL values in false when fetches data from DB?

Any suggestion will be appreciated!

Hi,

i always set it in the database with an update statement, but you could make your own boolean class which converts null into false @PostLoad.

Thanks looney.
So you are saying to use a wrapper class that treats NULL as false.
Do you think that using java.lang.Boolean instead of the primitive type could work (just to avoid to re-invent the wheel.... :-) )?

Bye,
Stefano

I confirm that it works with java.lang.Boolean.

Thanks again looney!
