| The OpenBasePKPlugIn.framework is used when you want EOF to use native primary key generation for OpenBase. This eliminates the need for using the EO_PK_TABLE to track primary keys.
It is still required that your entities have a primary key attribute (usually of type long or longlong).
The difference is that when using the PK plug-in the database (OpenBase) is responsible for generating unique keys and providing those keys to EOF. When not using the PK plugin it is EOF's responsibility to create and maintain unique keys for it's entities. EOF uses the EO_PK_TABLE to support this.
There are some distinct advantages to using native PK generation scheme. OpenBase supports clustering. Native key generation is needed when using database clustering. On Jan 26, 2006, at 1:13 PM, Amedeo Mantica wrote: ok, but If I don't need unique index... I need the OpenBase plugin?
