Since you're currently the leading contender for the 2007 Vertical Inheritance Award, you mind setting up a test scenario of this and let me know if it works as expected?

"Using EOModeler" Page 74 under Vertical Mapping, step #3:

entity."


So either the manual on how to do it is wrong, or the example of how to do it is wrong. Awesome.

:-D

My bet's on the manual being wrong.

Thinking about it: it makes absolutely no sense to flatten both the foreign keys into the child as well as flattening the relationship. But seeing as EOF requires that you flatten the foreign keys that leads us (me) to one conclusion: don't flatten relationships into child - and in fact validate it as wrong to do so please ;-)

Unless anyone can put forward a reasonable argument for why both would be flattened I'd go ahead and do it.

Well that makes me feel like there's more certainty in this...
