 Description   

NoSides extends IntField, but constants for ONE_SIDE and BOTH_SIDES are defined as char.

public class NoSides extends IntField {
static final long serialVersionUID = 20050617;
public static final int FIELD = 552;
public static final char ONE_SIDE = '1';
public static final char BOTH_SIDES = '2';
...

When you call:
message.set(new NoSides(NoSides.ONE_SIDE));
Then the wrong value 49 (Ascii code of '1') instead of 1 is sent.

Wow, this really is a special case. NoSides seems to be the only repeating group delimiter field which has constants specified. However, I would rather not do "message.set(new NoSides(NoSides.ONE_SIDE));" on my own but rather add the repeating group to the message which then does the necessary calculation for the NoSides field.
