Details:

Summary: object.vm generates classes with bad syntax when using primary keys of short or byte
Description: When compiling the code using a database with primary keys of shortint or tinyint, we get the following errors:

- when using a byte for a primary key, the objects.vm file had an extra  paren ")" in it, giving a compilation error.
- When using a short or byte as a foreign key, a set is generated for the ability to set the value based on an object. Using the template, it produces the following code:
           if (v == null)
	        {
      	        setForeignKey(0);
	         }
Since the key is a short or byte, this would cause an error.  This also occurs in the CopyInto method.
