Vince, Coul you please clarify me on this subject, I don't get 'the circle closed'.
When I follow the documentation at http://wiki.openbluedragon.org/wiki/index.php/GoogleAppEngine:Datastore, I can't seem to make a closing structure of my logic. 1) When I choose to go for the googleKey (which I higly prefer, because it's generated by the datastore), I do the following: - create an object from my User.cfc (bean); User = CreateObject ('component','model.user.User').init() - write it to the datastore; googleKey = GoogleWrite(User); - read from the datastore; User = googleRead(googleKey); - get list of users; aUsers = GoogleQuery('select from User') But what if I have a the details of a user in a form (with the googleKey in a hidden input), and I post this form. How do I than create a User object that 'knows' the googleKey so that a GoogleWrite() will update an exisiting object in the datastore? Should I first do a 'User = googleRead(googleKey)' and than update the properties with my form properties, and than 'GoogleWrite(User)'? Or can I set the googleKey in my User object with a 'setGoogleKey()' function, or something like that? 2) When I choose to go for the combination kind/keyName, I do the following: - create an object from my User.cfc (bean); User = CreateObject ('component','model.user.User').init(kind,keyName) - write it to the datastore; GoogleWrite(User,kind,keyName); - read from the datastore; User = googleRead(kind,keyName); - get list of users; aUsers = GoogleQuery('select from User'); But what if I have a the details of a user in a form (with the kind and keyName in a hidden input), and I post this form. How do I than create a User object that 'knows' the the kind and keyName so that a GoogleWrite() will update an exisiting object in the datastore? Should I first do a 'User = googleRead(kind,keyName)' and than update the properties with my form properties, and than 'GoogleWrite(User)'? Or can I set the kind and keyName in my User object with 'setGoogleKind () and setGoogleKeyName()' functions, or something like that? Maybe, I am overseeing something very badly, but after read the doc a couple of time, and trying some different code, I coul not come up with a solution. Thank you in advance for helping me out, Rainer.
