Hi Jeff,
If your list is static, maybe the PropertyList (plist) format is your answer; with developer tools you can find "Property List Editor" for editing these files.
More info :
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/WebObjects/Reference/API/com/webobjects/foundation/NSPropertyListSerialization.html
An example for reading plist :
Object objetSerial = null;//ex: can be NSArray or NSDictionary
Application application = (Application) WOApplication.application();
WOResourceManager resourceManager = application.resourceManager();
InputStream inputStream = resourceManager.inputStreamForResourceNamed(nom, null, null);
try {
NSData data = new NSData(inputStream, inputStream.available());
objetSerial = NSPropertyListSerialization.propertyListFromData(data, _NSUtilities.UTF8StringEncoding);
}catch (Exception exception) {
....
}
return objetSerial;

Forgive the beginner question.
I am a Java Developer trying to migrate to using WebObjects.
What I would like to create is a simple web service.
I have an xml file with info for US States. Sample follows:
<state>
<abbreviation>AL</abbreviation>
<capitalcity>Montgomery</capitalcity>
<dateofstatehood>1819.12.14</dateofstatehood>
<name>Alabama</name>
</state>
<state>
<abbreviation></abbreviation>
<capitalcity>Juneau</capitalcity>
<dateofstatehood>1959.1.3</dateofstatehood>
<name>Alaska</name>
</state>
I would like to use this xml file as a data source for the web service. For example, I would like an application to connect to this web service to get a list of the state names and their abbreviations for populating a drop down list.
I had in mind that I could use the EOModeler to build the state objects directly from the xml file. But I dno't really see anyone else doing this. It seems a waste to use a full db engine for a static list (as in the values would NEVER change) such as this.
In my novice ignorance:
1) CAN you use an xml file directly as the datasource for EOModeler?
2) If so, can someone point me to some examples so I can get moving on this learning curve.....
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Jeff Pearson
