Bug using float/Float data types

[Sacha]

Hello,

If you try and use a field of type float or Float with DataForm, it appears to work, but does not commit properly. Changing to Double works fine. The problem is with setProperty in EntityBase. If the default DataFormDecimalEditor is used, then it tries to call (eg) setValue(float) with data of type Double, throws the exception, catches it silently and carries on - this is very bad!!!!! It makes it look like everything is working, but in fact it fails to commit. 

See attached screenshots.

Hi Sacha,

Thank you very much for reporting this.
This exception should not be handled at all and the app should crash and notify the developer of the inconsistent data types.
This will be fixed in the next release.

Thanks Victor. If it's possible to make it work with Float/float as an underlying data type, this would be very convenient indeed.

Hello Sacha,

Thanks for the feedback. We'll see what we can do to support float out of the box. Please write again if you need further assistance.
