Joe,
OK, I see where you are going ... you are wondering how to fetch
against a different eomodel ....... well, stop wondering ... it is
automagic!
The only restriction for having lots of eomodels is that *all* entity
names must be unique! (Note the java class package.name and database
table names can be whatever you want)..... everything in EOF then
"just works".
Regards, Kieran
PS. That code was in my Application constructor .... but may be
irrelevant to your questions .... I was just showing how you could
access models and entities after super in App constructor since Wonder
has already loaded them all at that stage.

Hi Joe,
AFAIK, if you just define properties below for each model using the
syntax
<modelname>.URL, <modelname>.DBUser, etc., all the models and their
entities
will be automatically loaded at startup by Wonder which checks for
such
properties at startup.
In your Application constructor, after super(), all the models and
entities
will have been loaded by Wonder, so you can iterate thru models and/
or
entities and do what you like with them, for example ......
// Make demography eomodel readonly
boolean demographyIsReadOnly =
ERXProperties
.booleanForKeyWithDefault("demography.isReadOnlyEntities",
false);
if (demographyIsReadOnly) {
EOModel demography =
EOModelGroup.defaultGroup().modelNamed("demography");
for (java.util.Enumeration demographyEntityEnumerator =
demography.entities().objectEnumerator(); demographyEntityEnumerator
.hasMoreElements();) {
EOEntity entity = (EOEntity)
demographyEntityEnumerator.nextElement();
entity.setReadOnly(true);
}
}
So, I presume you'd want ERXModelGroup there. The above was not in
Application.java I presume. When asking for a objects for a specific
entity, has done one use the usual utilities to call on the specific
model?
ie.. NSArray items = EOUtilities.objectsForEntityNamed (new
EOEditingContext(), "Item");
I guess I'm only missing the link between auto-loaded models and the
above style call, which I did with this:
admitModel = ERXModelGroup.defaultGroup().modelNamed("admit");
admitArchModel = ERXModelGroup.defaultGroup().modelNamed("admitarch");
Does it just look for an Item across both models?

Hi Joe,
Not sure if this is what you are looking for .... here is an
example of
entries in Properties for access to different databases:
<snip>
#########################################################################
# ERExtensions - ERXModelGroup properties
#########################################################################
er.extensions.ERXModelGroup.prototypeModelNames=WKPrototypes
cheetah.URL = jdbc:mysql://host1/cheetah?capitalizeTypenames=true
cheetah.DBUser = @@cheetah.dbuser@@
cheetah.DBPassword = @@cheetah.dbpassword@@
cheetah.DBDriver =
cheetah.DBPlugin =
cheetah.DBJDBCInfo =
demography.URL = jdbc:mysql://host2/demography?
capitalizeTypenames=true
demography.DBUser = @@demography.dbuser@@
demography.DBPassword = @@demography.dbpassword@@
demography.DBDriver =
demography.DBPlugin =
demography.DBJDBCInfo =
</snip>
IIRC, ERXModelGroup is where a lot of model startup entity loading
munging
happens, so examining the source there can indicate what is
happening,
how
it works, and what Properties entries affect what.
I'll look into the code. Never looked inside Wonder source and was
hoping for examples on how to use it. So, there isn't posted anyway
examples on using ERXModelGroup and loading models into an app
within
Application? Again, I've been limited to the stuff that WO just
gives
you to date, which is all automatic. My understanding currently ends
there.
HTH,
Kieran

That would need to be an ER Model I take it. Again, do you
happen to
have a snippet of code taking multiple entity modeler defined
models,
overriding those settings, etc, and then having a joined model
group..
or should this not be in a model group. I'm confused as to how
this is
all done w/ Wonder as I've also been trying to use
ModelConnector and
other PracticalWO Frameworks solutions to the same.

Ok. I've banged my head on this one a lot.
ConfigurationManager allows
you to change anything except for the database itself.
??
dbConnectURLGLOBAL=jdbc:postgresql://localhost/meetings
That can also be set on a per model base.
