Hi everyone,
I starting to learn WebObjects, but I've come into a little issue trying to create an NSArray from an Entity.

It often helps to know what version you're using...

In the WOBuilder, when I try to create a key for a list in a WORepetition, code is created in the .java file, but it's
not showing up in the list where my other keys are.

Obviously, a method that returns null will not show up.

To create the key, I've:

a) Clicked Edit -> Edit Source -> Add Key

b) Name: accountEntries -> Type Array of: Accounts -> Generate source code for: method returning a value


The code that is entered in the .java files is:
    /** @TypeInfo Accounts */
    public (null) accountEntries()
    {
        return accountEntries;
    }

Shouldn't the code have been:
    /** @TypeInfo Accounts */
    public NSArray accountEntries()
    {
        return accountEntries;
    }

When you create a new key in WOBuilder, there is (at least there use to be...) a drop down box to choose what type it is going to be. If you leave it blank, you'll get null.

If I modify the code to be "public NSArray ...", I now see a key in the WOBuilder, but it gives me a list of my variables that are in the entity, not the functions of ( @avg, @count, @max, ....)

Now that is strange. I would double check that you're actually looking at the right key, but other than that, I can only suggest restarting Xcode and WOBuilder...
