Compilation error: char[] vs byte[] mismatch for getPatternDefinition() / setPatternDefinition() during bootstrap

Hello all,
I’m running into a strange compilation issue during bootstrap on AZ-neo-3.12q.
Only on my local, the generated code is giving me char[] instead of byte[] for patternDefinition, and that leads to these errors:

The errors come from:

RecurringDataHelper
SimpleRecurrencePatternHelper
and the model rows (SiteRecurrenceDataRow, SiteRsrcRecurrenceDataRow)

What’s confusing is — my teammates don’t see this issue. Their codegen still produces byte[], but mine suddenly switched to char[].

Has anyone seen this before?
Is there some local codegen/XSD/JAXB cache or config that could cause datatype differences during generation?

Any pointers on where to check or what to clean/reset would really help. 🙏

here are the logs

How can I upload a file which isn't in my menu of available Uploads?

I want to upload an inbound interface file. But my current user doesn't have a menu item for it. Is there any way for me to do it?

Can a unit test access model MDFs?

Matthew Le — Tue, 05 Aug 2025 16:20:39 +0000

I have a unit test (AbstractUnitTest) that is using a model object to get and set values to a field of type Float. The purpose of the test is to validate that certain values can be set on that field without losing precision.

The model field is defined as a MDFs and when calling getMDFs(), we get the following RuntimeException:

 Testcase: testFloatField took 1.468 sec

     at com.transcendsys.platform.base.bo.helper.ModelHelper.getMDFs(ModelHelper.java:74)

Example of the getMDFs() call:

Item actual = new Item();
ItemMDFs actualTestMdfs = actual.getMDFs(com.onenetwork.test.model.ItemMDFs.class);

The test is not expected to write data to the database and we are just using the model object field to store data. The same test works when implemented as a server test (AbstractServerTest).

Is it possible to use the model class and get its MDFs in a unit test or is the server required for getting the MDFs class?
