EO: Object Collections?


  • Subject: EO: Object Collections?

SCENARIO:
Assume we have two objects in our model: "Song" and "Genre."  The goal is to
be able to assign each "Song" object to multiple "Genre" objects.

QUESTION:
Using the example above, must there be some type of third object -- possibly
a "SongGenreAssignment" object to allow for a many-to-many relationship?

It would appear that EO should take care of this thing automatically if the
developer is to be able to break away from manipulating the database
directly.  Unfortunately, there does not appear to be any way to define a
collection of objects within EO, other than using a relationship (which does
not allow for a many-to-many hierarchy).
