I found the issue (or non issue, whatever you like ;)) get_test_char_display() calls the field's choices with a string (of course it is a CharField), which results in the following call (stripped down talen from django/db/models/base.py: dict(choices).get(value,value) Now accesing it with a string as value would raise a KeyError so the value saved in the CharField is returned, which is a string containing an int.
The remaining question now is whether this should get documented somehow (eg match the type of the field...) or not. Of course it doesn't make sense to use integers and then store them in the db, but this question popped up a few times in irc...

If I use str for all the choices it does work... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
