    Hi,

    I have the usual flattened User <<-->> Group many to many relationship with a association table in between. My problem is, in the association table I have an attribute, which I want to set to a certain default value.

    But when Cayenne creates a new entry in the association table, all attributes except the fk/pks are set to null. Is there any way to specify a default for the attributes there?

    I tried to also map the association table to an ObjEntity, but that never gets used, this flattened stuff seems to be handled at a lower level.

    I can of course change my model and handle the assiciation table in the code, but maybe there is an easier way?

    Thanks,
    Marc
