EOF being overly helpful.

Subject: EOF being overly helpful.

Hi All,

I have a table called Person which has a to-many relationship with a table PersonName, which is an optional relationship and Own's Desition is ticked and has a Batch Fault of 5. The inverse relationship from PersonName to Person is to-one and mandatory. PersonName has its own primary key. The idea here being a Person's name may change over time and this way I can track when that happens and any records which they entered before the name changed will still have the old name associated with it. I have a fetch spec in PersonName which I use to get a list names of members which are currently active. The fetch spec is : active = 1 and person.accessLevel <> -1 and ( person.type = 2 or person.type = 3 )

Where active indicates its a currently active name, person.accessLevel <> -1 indicates the person is not inactive and person.type 2 & 3 indicates I only want the staff and students.

selectablePersons = (NSMutableArray) EOUtilities.objectsWithFetchSpecificationAndBindings (ec,"PersonName","getActiveMembers",null);

Now this works fine, it retrives all the records I want in 1 hit.
And produces the following SQL

Not 167 records processed. However it then grabs all 167 people objects associated with these names, 1 AT A TIME ! Well at least thats what I think its doing. Heres a selection of the SQL that it produces. This is all from the single line of code above.

Notice how some request produce 0 rows processed and for those that have 1 row processed the fetch is canceled. Suffice to say this is all cause a very large waste of time which means my page takes 4 seconds to load.

I thought perhaps if the to-one relationship between PersonName and Person was optional instead of mandatory it wouldn't try and grab the People records but it still did.

So what am I doing wrong ? I understand EOF is trying to be helpful and grab the People objects for me but this time I don't want it to. In fact Im not even sure what's causing these faults to be fired. If I can't "turn it off" is there any way I can get it to do it all in one go instead of object by object. And why does it cancel the fetch when it actual gets a result ?

As always comments and suggestions welcome.
