Report query and field conversion

[Dougall Squair <Do...@metcash.com>]

Hi, 

I have defined a ReportQueryByCriteria which has as a field that uses a
conversion class. e.g.  

	....

    <field-descriptor
        name="addressStatus"
        column="status"
        jdbc-type="INTEGER"
        conversion="dao.ojb.Status2IntFieldConversion"
    >


However the data type of the object returned in the row array is of Type
java.lang.Integer and not Status.  Is this expected behavour?

Hi Dougall,

ReportQueries don't care for FieldConversions!
ReportQueries give you the freedom to perform queries that have nothing 
in common with the object model defined in repository.xml.

They also do not return business objects but row arrays.
So it would not correct to apply FieldConversions, as they are only 
defined for business objects.

cheers,
Thomas
