That sounds like an interesting idea. I'd like to hear more about this
if you go ahead with this.
Off the top of my head, the first stumbling block will be that the EOs
use NSArray for collections and Tapestry is not going to know anything
about that. Perhaps you can teach tapestry. Otherwise you are going
to need some layer in there to translate to Java collection classes.
Doubtless, this will bring PA out for a quick rant on this subject.

Hello -
Is it possible and/or has anyone had experience with decoupling EOF
and using it solely as a persistance engine ala Hibernate, Cayenne or
any other frameworks out there? I'm assuming it can since iTunes
clearly wasn't built with WOBuilder. :-)
I've been doing a lot of Tapestry work lately and really really like
that framework for the front-end and have used Hibernate and Cayenne
with some success. Cayenne is very similar but it's only at version
1.1 and EOF has been around forever and is very reliable in my
experience. Hibernate just doesn't feel right for lack of a better
technical reason for not liking it (other then the lazy initialization
hacks that I hate dealing with).
I would think the best of both worlds would be a Tapestry view and EOF
for the model. Tapestry has almost an identical feel to WOBuilder and
is integrated nicely into eclipse.
Any thoughts/advice would be appreciated.
BTW, i realize it would require a license to do this but we deploy on
OS X Server so that's a non-issue.
Thanks
Mike
