Re: Is it bad to put Objects in EO derived classes

I need to add a BigDecimal to each Transaction record, I added it to

as a local object. I don't instantiate it until it is needed.

My question is, even though it is transient, is it better to add it to the base EOModel, so it exists in the DB?

I've read that it is bad to put Objects in EO derived classes.

If I understand correctly, this is just a cached valued used for optimization.

Yes.

I'm assuming you're using EOGenerator and generating 2 different class files, right? That's really the best way to do it, then you add your variables in the non underscore class. I do this all the time.


No I don't use EOGenerator and generate 2 different class files, is there any more on that, examples, etc.
