String attributes called "description" are ok, and EOGenericRecord is ok with relationships called "description". However ERXGenericRecord has a method description() which returns toString() hence you can't call a relationship "description" or it tries to override the return type and gives a compile error.

That might be the first time that Wonder is worse than vanilla WO!

Entity Modeler USED to (maybe still does) warn about this ... If you look at EOEnterpriseObject, there's:

String eoDescription() -- Returns a String that describes the receiver.

so maybe it was renamed? I think I dodged "description" for a really long time until someone said "you don't have to" a year or so ago ... probably was Chuck.

Maybe, but I still mostly try to avoid it out of remembrance of the pain of the week that I discovered that this was NOT a good name to use with Obj-C.

I believe it's still the case... unless that was Entity Modeler complaining. Can't recall.

Back in the old days, an attribute named "description" would cause you grief. ;-)
