Question

Default value property attribute vs Importer

3

I have a attribute of type enum. The default value is set. What happens if a record is created by the synchronizer action (java) ? Is the default value set? Or is the default value only set when Mendix creates the object?

The default value should be set as expected, just as if you had created it via a "create object" microflow action.

Currently the xml importer does not set the default value (attribute values are directly streamed into the database). However, from a user's perspective, I would expect the default value being set, so in my opinion this is a bug. Could you file a bug report into MXDN?
