Hello -
I have been studying EOModeler and have been very diligent
in modeling my database. Now I am working with "Fetch Spec"
and again wondered...
If I have a large table and that table is used for reporting, editing,
printing and displaying, would it be better to create multiple entities
of the same table but with the smaller subsets of data that are needed.
For instance, I will be showing small lists on my web page in a panel
that will only need to show 4 attributes out of about 50... then I will
have
an interface to "expand" this listing to a full page with many instances
but still only a subset of the 50 attributes, i.e, about 10.
So... is it better that I create all these entities with their specific
"Fetch Spec"
before I start development.... or just create the single table entities
and only
use the necessary methods to display the subset of attributes.
If this makes sense I would greatly appreciate any feedback here as I am
just starting a new project with this tool and really would like to
start with
the proper foundation.
Sincerely,
James Cicenia - President/CEO
