Hi! Sorry to ask two questions in one day. (It's quite exciting, I'm possibly going to be able to use WO in a client project, so I'm currently trying to do various proof of concept bits to make sure I'm capable of it.) I was wondering if anyone had used ERAttachment with Direct to Web. I'd be look

Hi all. I wondered if I could request some help again. As I've mentioned before, the thing I'm doing now is writing an API that's inspired by D2W and D2JC. So while I'm not actually using the latter at the moment, I am trying to understand how it is designed to work. I'm looking into EOTabSwitchC

Re: Direct To Cocoa App, or How Does D2WContext Work Anyway? (Somewhat OT)

2012-03-03 Thread Amy Worrall
Thanks Ramsey, that's very helpful. So in this code: EditPageInterface ep = D2W.factory().editPageForEntityNamed(entityName, session()); ep.setObject(eo); Then the D2W factory will have created the D2WContext and pushed entityName onto it, before handing it to the page? And since setObject is

Hi all. Hope you're well. I work as an iOS developer, and we frequently find ourselves in need of internal tools for editing Core Data files of the data that will be put into our apps. These tools need to be usable by non-techies, but they don't need to be beautiful, and usually I throw something

Hi! I have a question about good app design. I know that, as mentioned in the WOWODC videos I've watched, a common beginner mistake is to put most of the logic in the page components. Indeed, I've been guilty of that myself in apps I've made in the past. I know the fundamentals of MVC from my back
