The following areas might be a source of issues when starting to use the version Clover Club 12.x, so please make yourself familiar with this section.

Filters on Meta-Attributed Entities: Bug Fix and Future Plans

Issue: In version 12.x, there was an issue where api.find and other searches failed with Filter.equal("name", 123) for meta-attributed entities (PFUN-24868).

Changes in behavior:

• From version 12.0: A new, more consistent behavior was introduced for handling filters on name/keyX of lookup table values when the meta type is Number.

• From version 12.3.4 onwards: It became possible to revert to the 11.x behavior using a new feature flag (at the partition level) named enableAllAttributedFieldCastForNumericFilterInFindAndFetch. By default, this flag is enabled to maintain the new, correct behavior introduced in version 12.0.

  • Users experiencing issues can set this flag to false to revert to the 11.x behavior.

Future plans: In version 14.x, this feature flag is likely to be removed, and only the new, correct behavior will be supported.
