So I created my EO Model and saved it in my xcode project directory.
I have added the model to my project by adding existing file and
selecting it. It is now in my Web Components Group. I actually had
it in the root of my project folder but it wasn't showing up. Once
I moved the file into my Web Components group, WOBuilder recognized
and added it to my keys. It shows up as publishersDisplayGroup.
EOModel needs to be in your Resources group - for a modern Xcode,
that means it belongs to the Application Server target.
If your table (not eomodel) shows in WOBuilder as
publishersDisplayGroup, that means you have added it to a WO
component, which means that you don't understand the description you
tried to give in the previous quoted paragraph - you missed the
crucial couple of steps.
So now I added a WOString to my page to display the number of rows
in the database. I bound it to
publishersDisplayGroup.displayedObjects.@count. It comes back as
the number zero. I also tried binding it to
publishersDisplayGroup.allObjects.@count. It STILL comes back as
the number zero. I know for a fact there are 94 rows in that table.
If I go back to EOModeller, it DOES show the rows. I know I am
probably binding to the wrong thing. What do I bind it to?
When you drop a table on a component, it pops up a configuration
panel. You can also bring this panel up by double clicking on the
check mark in the WO Builder browser. Make sure that "fetch on load"
is checked in this panel, and that your database is running.
I am working from the WebObjects for Windows Developers book
still...chapter 3 with the movie database example. Is there a
better book I should be using?
The best beginner WebObjects books are the WROX press one (the first
half of it, anyway), and the Joshua Marker one - go see Amazon. When
you get a bit more experience, you'll want the book (maybe books, by
then) by Chuck Hill.
