Looking at this post, I realized there could be a discussion of
this on the doc (at http://wiki.objectstyle.org/confluence/display/WO/Programming__WebObjects-EOF-Modeling-Fetch+Specifications)
and there is none.
Just recently, I answered a question about value types without
recalling, or mentioning, that this is documented there also (at http://wiki.objectstyle.org/confluence/display/WO/EOF-Modeling-Common+Pitfalls+and+Troubleshooting)
, although that page name might not make it extremely easy to find.
I am certainly going to poke myself and remember to start putting
things up on the documentation. Just saying, it is great to
respond to the mailing list, but documentation could reduce the
need for people to post so many questions to the list....
Good point. If I can find my Will to Live, I will resume updating
it.
Part of the problem is that those pages are virtually buried.
There's really no decent index pages at the top-levels for newbies.
e.g., start at http://objectstyle.org/ and show me how to navigate
to the WO docs. You have to go to WOLips (that'll be a guess for
newbies) and then click on the bread-crumbs for Dashboard and lo and
behold there's a topic for WebObjects there.
Any wonder they give up so quickly, esp when people are so willing
to respond on the mailing list :-) It's much faster...
That is a very good point. That first WebObjects page is WAAAY too
confusing and information dense. And it is hard to find it. Google
mostly returns links to the old WikiBook. Does anyone know if we can
just get rid of that so Google finds the current information?
