Hmmm - well looks like you hit the nail on the head.

My swollen thumb is evidence of a few misses as well :-)

I went back into FrontBase with their tool and changed the Integer to Int and now it's working as it should. Looks like I'll need to spend some time with the EO & FrontBase docs to determine what the appropriate 'External Types' should be.

After associating an eomodel with a particular database type according to the URL in the adaptor info, the External Type column of EOModeler will include a list of types appropriate to the database, so you shouldn't have to worry about FrontBase docs. You can manually change all of these using EOModeler, but with a sizable model, I find it quicker to work directly on the ASCII "plist" file representing each entity in the eomodel's *.eomodeld directory. I suggest doing this on a copy of your eomodel because making a mistake can corrupt your eomodel. Using TextEdit, do a search and replace for each datatype. Or if you know sed or even ed(!), you can make these changes the old-fashioned way which is also probably the fastest :-) OS X being Unix offers many bonuses to those who wish to take full advantage.


Aloha,
Art
