David,

Oh, and thanks to everyone that didn't go off on how Java Client is dead. I know it was hard for you (Chuck). :D

lol,  hey I'm right there with you man.  I have several Java Client applications currently being used in a big way.  I'm just begging the process of figuring out another way.  It's starting look like that way is a combination of AJAX and Cocoa (where possible).  I'm making some important strides in the process of this.

However,  it is my opinion that dropping Java Client is the right thing to do.  It is technology that was deeply rooted in the Objective-C version of WO in the pre-version 5.0 days and really has not translated very well to the Java world.  It's crazy building swing application using Interface Builder and translating Cocoa controls to Swing controls.  It just makes programming Java Client really difficult and it's quite bug-prone.

That may sound strange from someone who relies so heavily on Java Client, but that was not by my choice.

Okay, just a little perspective on this problem. While it wasn't Robert's suggested simple thing, it was another insanely simple thing. Just delete the Java WebStart Cache at ~/Library/Caches/Java.

This has been a problem for me for OVER A YEAR! Waste a bunch of time, indeed!  

My first post on the issue was back in May of last year, and as of August 2006, with the help of lots of people on the list, I had gotten close to figuring it out, but ended up giving up and shelving Java Client.

I stopped using doing JavaClient development just because I couldn't get this to work correctly, even with help from the list. After 9 months of trying to get a good Web UI to function as smoothly (for my purposes) as the Java Client, I went back to the Java Client version to see if I could figure it out again.

Having a year more of WO experience certainly helped me more quickly narrow down where the problem was and post much more informative requests for help, but without the continued help of the list, I'm sure I would have never figured it out, and all it was, was deleting a directory. Ahhhhhhgg!

Oh, and thanks to everyone that didn't go off on how Java Client is dead. I know it was hard for you (Chuck). :D

Thanks again!!!!!

David,

Just to be sure, you do have the "Client-side class" set properly in your EOModel right?  If you happen to be using EOModeler you may have to add the column from the popup menu (since it's hidden by default).

I realize this is a basic thing, but I'd hate for you to waist a bunch of time due to something silly like this.
