    For the driver I use mysql-connector-java-3.1.13-bin.jar

    here

    http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/connector-j-reference-type-conversions.html

    it reads that INT UNSIGNED should map to java.lang.Long. This is fine I
    think and it is correct right after creation of the object.

    But why is the type of the column java.lang.Integer when I retrieve the
    value later via cayenne? Isn't the bug rather to search there?

    I don't think that globally changing INT to be mapped to JDBC BIGINT
    is a good idea (although this can be done by editing org/objectstyle/
    cayenne/dba/mysql/types.xml). What is confusing to me is why the
    generated key is java.lang.Long for the INTEGER column. Could be a
    MySQL driver bug???
