JR41555: BO-MAP BEHAVIOR CHANGE FROM WPS 6.2.0.2 TO BPM 7.5.X

Version 7.5.1 Fix Pack 1 for the IBM Business Process Manager products

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The business object map in BPM7.5 is behaving differently than
  WPS 6.2 when unset value in source BO is set to a default
  value in target BO.
  
  e.g "0" value is set for int element type intAttribute2 in
  target BO as <intAttribute2>0</intAttribute2>.
  
  The following types are effected:
  boolean  -> empty (null) value gets to 'false'
  double   -> empty (null) value gets to 0.0
  float    -> empty (null) value gets to 0.0
  int      -> empty (null) value gets to 0
  

Local fix
