Hi,
I have an Entity name ProUser and another call ProService. ProService is a list of services that the user can select that they offer via checkboxes. I used the Create Many to many menu option in EOModeller to create the relationship which flattens it into ProUser. I created a component that I wanted to have a list of all the checkboxes so that the user can select which ones they want. I used a WOCheckBoxList and hooked everything up and it throws an Exception (see below). I thought this might have been me misusing the WOCheckBoxList component so I changed it to a CheckBoxMatrix with a maxColumns of 1 to effectively give the same display behaviour, but the SAME exception occurs, so I'm at a loss as to why.


I had a search through the archives and looked for previous problems and made sure that I was following the commandments of EOF (you know the ones I recite when go to bed at night and when I wake up in the morning :-)). I was trying to see if I can actually turn on debugging of the raw rows returned from the db, but couldn't seem to find anything in NSLog's javadoc.

Does anyone have any suggestions on trying to figure what is a miss?

It looks like the problem is with a missing external name for the correlation table. When you created the m2m, did you go in and update the column and table names? This is one I often miss, though if you have EOModeler do a consistency check, it will catch this.
