| Hi. Glad it is a common use-case. Not sure if you have misunderstood my intentions but I was asking for advice rather than planning a super-duper automatic EOF to obj-c/core data magic converter - although I had hoped someone else had already invented such a wonder (no pun intended).
Am experimenting with the iOS library RestKit which I think can make a core data model from what it receives from a REST service automagically… I think…

FANTASTIC!
yes, ERSync is not going to work for the main question which is how to store a local object graph that loads as the user sees things, and keep it updated while still being able to rationally send data back to the server in a way that can handle offline or poor network conditions etc.
ERRest is SUPER-FAB for being the server of an iPhone client and there’s quite a few tricks we can and should compile together.
So, definitely call upon me to have something to say about all this and I’ve been at it a few years now, so I have gone through all this at least once or twice.
greatly looking forward!

I am starting to work on a new presentation layer for our web application using the iOS SDK. We plan on writing custom small iOS apps that integrate with the larger more complex backend web-application built in WebObjects.
I can see ERSync but note it is not in Wonder yet. Is this still in development or is it ready for deployment? It certainly looks an easy way to get started.
However, we might want more finely grained control anyway. We’ve been adding REST interfaces to the backend. Does anyone have any recommendations for an iOS client library to make this work trivial? I would think that we could create some stub object-graph in objective c that then gets sent to the server semi-automatically? Is there something that would take an EOModel and create a core data equivalent or skeleton classes?
I can see various references on the mailing list but nothing on the wiki.
Any pointers (*) much appreciated!
Mark (*) you can tell I’m back to coding in C and not just using java (!)
