All you should have to do is instaniate an EOEditingContext. It should
automatically find the database coordinator and share the connection (or
create it if it is the first)
Some things to know though,
1) You better lock/unlock the editing context yourself since this is not the
defaultEditingContext of a session that is automatically locked for you
before each request is serviced.
2) You cannot use EOs across editing contexts. You need to fault them into
your other context using EOUtilities (category on EditingContext in ObjC, and
a helper class in Java) localInstanceOfObject method.
