Hi all,

I’m working on a project that needs to have a separate, independent 
ERAttachment setup. What I mean is that the project is already using 
ERAttachment for a few things, but now I have a need for all of ERAttachment’s 
functionality, only storing all the meta-data and even db-based attachments in 
a completely different database than where the existing attachments are stored.

I have done exactly this before by forking ERAttachment into a new 
"DaveAttachment" Framework. All the existing attachments worked using the stock 
ERAttachment framework, but the new attachments were managed by DaveAttachment, 
but that is long-term code management PITA.

I’m wondering if it would it be possible enable ERAttachment to use multiple 
data-stores by programmatically cloning the ERAttachment EOModel at startup and 
creating a new EOModel for each “data-store” with independent Entity names as 
configured by properties? 

If you only have one data-store (the current functionality) then ERAttachment 
would continue to work as-is, but if you specify multiple data-stores in the 
properties, that would trigger the programatic creation and loading of the 
additional models?

Does anyone see anything that I’m missing that would not allow this?

Thanks!

Dave
