FireStorm/DAO 3.0 RC2 build 148
Build 148 is now available to download. This build contains a significant change to the way that primary key (findByPrimaryKey) finders are handled. In previous releases, the findByPrimaryKey definition was automatically created when a database schema was reverse-engineered and then required maintaining by hand in the event that the primary key changed. This has been a regular source of confusion for our customers and also was not useful to those customers that are using FireStorm/DAO as a database design tool as they always had to manually define their primary key finders.
As of build 148, the findByPrimaryKey finder is a special type of finder that is automatically updated whenever the primary key is updated. It can no longer be edited manually but still appears in the project file in full for backward compatibility.
This build also contains an improved UI for defining Table and View DAOs as shown in this screenshot. Click on the image for a larger version.
