Entity Modeller == EOModeler?

Hi, My question is coming from "SQL generation" in Entity Modeler. When I am playing the code with Apple/example/SophisticatedDatabaseExample. Copied from README: The SophisticatedDatabaseExample demonstrates the use of inheritance, flattening, and multiple models. The Person class is abstract

Re: Design Question: Hiding inherited attributes?

Hello James; What are you trying to do? You do not have to use XML for ReportMill, unless you are designing a report, and that is just for convenience you can design a report without having the XML. To generate a report you just pass your EOObjects as an array (just the ones you want to

Yes - That is what I am trying to do and with zero luck. I have been in a slew of ignoreMembers and still it keeps going around and around and finding relationships. I limited the depth to 1. Didn't help a bit. Anybody use ReportMill with a complicated schema/model? I remember running int

If I type in my key by hand, i.e, @title@ and run this report against the array of projects it works fine. However, no matter how I try to create my XML file it always gives me keys like: @Projects.title@ and that is wrong. I will ask ReportMill again. On Jun 18, 2008, at 4:26 PM, James Cice

Are you trying to generate the XML to use with the ReportMill Designer? This is done using the RMWebObjects.writeObject method, which is availabe from the report mill website. If the problem is that it's outputting too many methods and variables, you can modify the RMWOXMLWriter class to ig

Re: Design Question: Hiding inherited attributes?

It probably is what I am missing. ReportMill creates an XML file for the ReportDesigner to show keys, etc. It is supposed to create this by interrogating my EOs. However, my EOs, are evidently way to complex and its xml writer finds itself in an infinite loop. I have Company -->> Portfolios -

James, I think everyone is scratching their heads in regards to your problem with ReportMill. Why is XML involved at all? ReportMill should be able to interrogate your objects as necessary. What am I missing here? Ken On Jun 18, 2008, at 3:40 PM, James Cicenia wrote: The problem is

EOEntity IS my friend. You can only subtract. You can't add to ReportMill. And you pretty much have to use their generator. I am thinking the best approach is to list everything from EOEntity. BBEdit that to a java method, and then start deleting the ignore lines I need while strongly testi

The problem is I am trying to user ReportMill. And they don't publish an XML spec. Instead they generate the XML automagically. And, with all the Velogen goodness, all my methods, reflexive relationships here and there, well, I can't get it to give me the XML. So I figured if I make anot
