Hi, I am using CompoundField inside my project and I have set it up like this

ArrayField (0+)
  CompoundField
    multiple fields, doesn't matter which ones
    BooleanField
    other fields, doesn't matter

When I first create my content (w/ or w/o the portal_factory assistance), the nested boolean fields are always false for some reason. When I edit my newly created content and set them to true it all starts to work, so editing works, creating doesn't.

It really puzzles me because w/ portal_factory, creating is pretty much just editing :-/

btw: I had this bug for a long time, ever since 1.0 I think (that was on Plone 2.5).

Any ideas?

Steps to reproduce:: Set up a content type via code (Archetypes). Set the schema like this:

ArrayField (0+)
  CompoundField
    multiple fields, doesn't matter which ones
    BooleanField
    other fields, doesn't matter

Create your content type and observe the boolean field value.
