Portlet Preference. HELP!

Hi All
 
I have following three points
 
1. I have define portlet preference in portlet.xml as below:
 
    <portlet-preferences>
             <preference>
                  <name>myValue</name>
                  <value>10</value>
              </preference>
    </portlet-preferences>

2. Assuming that there is no "myValue" preference key set in the database (jetspeed database "Hypersonic DB").
 
3. Enclose Portlet code:
 
         PortletPreferences pref = request.getPreferences(  );
         String strValue = pref.getValue( "myValue", "" );

 
 
So default value of "strValue" should always be "10". This is 100% corect.
 
But sometimes "strValue" is giving empty string "" value [as specified in pref.getValue( "myValue", "" )]. This is happen when I change the jetspeed database. 
 
How pref.getValue(str,str) is implemented? Even though changing jetspeed database, default value of "strValue" should always be "10". 
 
Kindly help in this regard.....
 
Regards
Rakesh
