Re: Doing database creation before EOF gets involved ?
I have thought about this a bunch of times. My DB of choice is Postgresql. When you create the database cluster, PG automatically creates at least two databases. Template1 and the basis of Template1. I have often thought it would be possible to first let my app connect to Template1 as it must exist for PG to function. Then I could issue the SQL directly in my first migration that creates the database that I want. step two would be to then diddle the connection dictionary to point to the correct database. now normal migrations take over to create the tables, relationships, etc. I don't know that this would work. It was only an idea I had whilst driving to WOWODC13. It's a long drive from NYC to Montreal and what else is there to think about. If someone that understands this at a deeper level, put me out of my misery.

Doing database creation before EOF gets involved ?
I'm working on a WebObjects project which uses a database of minor complexity, and am wrestling mentally with finding a good way to let the first run create the database. Currently, the first run needs the EOModel's connection record to find the database (which is created my hand, but empty), and then uses Migration to read a SQL file that creates all the tables and fields. But I want a kind of "turn-key" start where, if the database doesn't exist, it gets created. My thinking so far has taken me to consider catching the exception that the missing database causes, using bare JDBC calls to create the database, and then, somehow, resuming use of the EOModel. But I learned years ago that if things are getting complicated in the WO/EOF world, I'm not doing it right; maybe there are tricks in the heart of Wonder that would help with this? I'd much appreciate any helpful ideas to carry this plan forward (or the suggestion to abandon it because it's an unnatural act!). Thanks .. Gavin ___ Do not post admin requests to the list.

Re: Including Fonts into PDF using ERPDFGeneration
Hi Christoph,
that’s how I create a PDF using ERPDFGeneration with custom fonts:
PDFTemplate pdfPage = pageWithName(PDFTemplate.class);
NSMutableDictionary config = new NSMutableDictionary();
config.takeValueForKey(new NSArray("Fonts/MyFont.ttf“,
"Fonts/MyOtherFont.ttf"), "fonts");
NSData pdf =
ERPDFUtilities.htmlAsPdf(pdfPage.generateResponse().contentString(),
CharEncoding.UTF_8, null, config);
In this example the fonts are located in a directory „Fonts“ within „Resources“.

Re: Including Fonts into PDF using ERPDFGeneration
actually the font name would be something like Arial.ttf or Helvetica.ttf
the docs do say 'filename'.

Re: Including Fonts into PDF using ERPDFGeneration
the docs say:
(optional) array of font filenames to include for PDF generation
It doesn't say a dictionary.
NSArray fontsArray = NSArray("Arial", "Helvetica");
Is how I would do it according to the documentation. Of course, I generally
just use JasperReports and convert fonts to .jar files and put them in the
build path.Then I don't have to worry.

Including Fonts into PDF using ERPDFGeneration
Hi List,
I try to include fonts into a PDF document using ERPDFGeneration. The
documentation of ERPFDWrapper tells me that there is a binding called "fonts".
The binding is described as "(optional) array of font filenames to include for
PDF generation".
OK so far. But whatever I set the "fonts" bindings to, I get an
ClassCastException that a String cannot be casted to NSArray.
Stacktrace below.
I've looked into the code and I found line 120 in FlyingSaucerImpl.java:
NSArray fonts = (NSArray)
configuration.objectForKey("fonts");
So, what's the correct syntax of the bindings value string to be converted into
an NSArray of Strings? I've tried ['Font 1', 'Font2'] as well as {'Font 1',
'Font2'}, but that all doesn't work.
Thx,
C.U.CW
