“the database has exposed primary and foreign keys that are mostly strings and char. The application is a mess”
You repeat yourself. :-) Exposed PK values are generally a bad idea, but EOF is OK with them. Exposed FK values cause serious problems with EOF maintaining graph consistency. Fix that and setting relationships should just work again.

Legacy EOModel with exposed keys..... Hi Markus, I don’t know of any property. Because they are exposed they are treated as attributes. Because they are relationships they are treated as foreign keys. So you really have to set both… I don’t see a way around it. If you don’t there is a race condition for who wins and you’ll never win. Would be better to make the attribute non-exposed and then create a cover read only (perhaps derived) property on that attribute to “expose” it for the legacy app. I mean… for whatever reason they want those integer values exposed so this is your best bet.

I have no idea where I saw this list. Could have been here or somewhere in the docs or the Wonder Source. But it is late and I am tired and I have been searching for it invain. Anyone to help me? Background: I am struggling with a legacy legacy legacy pure old time WebObjects application. No Wonder, no Eclipse, but WindowsXP with ProjectBuilder (sourcode goes back to 1998/1999!!!). And the database has exposed primary and foreign keys that are mostly strings and char. The application is a mess and I am trying to bring it into Eclipse and use Wonder. Unfortunately WOToOneRelationship does not connect objects. Manually using addObjectToBoth.... does not connect objects either (debugger shows that the relationship is set, but it does not populate the foreign key fields). Populating them manually in addition to addObject... fixes things. I have a vague recollection of a property that might help here, and that is why I am looking for that list. Any ideas? What am I missing? Thanks ---markus--- _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
