Use a class property to pass a flag
Looking for a way in which I could possibly pass a flag through a property when performing an Insert statement, on a mapped class.
insert into my.class (serialNumber, modelNumber, myFlag) value ('testSerial', 'testModel', 0)
myFlag is not stored in the DB.
The mapped class then calls a legacy routine (MAC) via CodeMode = 'objectgenerator', (Insert method within the 'objectgenerator')
Within the legacy routine, I am setting an index... but I don't always want to set it (multiple inserts, and I will only set the index on the LAST insert)
How can I pass that flag through the insert call? I attempted to make the property 'transient' and 'computed'. But looking at the compiled code (INT), upon performing the Insert the value is nulled and the set, therefore wiping out whatever I passed in.
Is there anyway to do this?

Add on insert trigger. myFlag value should be available there.
Modify your objectgenerator method to get myFlag variable?
I attempted that earlier, but the Trigger does not fire until 'before the save'.
As I have a 'objectgenerator' my code and it is calling a legacy function, where the index is set. As I step through the code, the legacy operations is performed and then the trigger is fired. While I can 'see' the myFlag variable, within the trigger, the index has already been set.
That is the problem, I can't get myFlag to that method.
