Thanks David,
While that seems obvious in retrospect, I was under the failed
impression that the entity name and the class name had to be the same.
Just to be clear,
I could have an Entity named "Sprockets" with a java class name of
com.spacely.eo.SpacelySprockets?
Yes.
You could also have two separate entities of SpacelySprocket and
CogswellSprocket with classes of:
com.spacely.eo.Sprocket
com.cogswell.eo.Sprocket
The class names are identical, but have different packages.
WebObjects is almost too flexible on this in my opinion, but probably
because of the limitation of requiring unique Entity names. :-)

Thanks a lot,

To be clear, the DB table names and java class names (as long as
the packages are different) can be the same, but the Entity names
need to be different.
I always try to keep the DB table, Entity and class name the same,
but there's no rule that says you have to (other than the "keep it
simple" rule).

Hi,
My particular issue is that I have two models that both have an
entity with the same name (User).
Can't. Just flat out can't. Change one of the names.
Chuck
They are in different packages but WO is still confused and is
throwing an error about the entity being in a different
database ....
Thanks in advance,
Johnny

Hi,
Is there a place where I can find documentation on this
subject? The Object Style wiki hasn't completed this section
yet.
Thanks in advance,
Is there something specific you wish to know?
