I've done stuff like this before - it really requires you to store additional meta-data in the model (like what relationships to copy or deep copy) and having your objects inherit from a common superclass. Then, in your deep copy method of the common superclass, inspect the model and copy what you have to.

Is there an easy way to duplicate an EOEnterpriseObject which would envolve automatically inserting new rows in variours database tables that are referenced?

I want to avoid building a copy of an object manually by creating sub-objects and their sub-objets and in the end putting them together...as I want to "copy" an object with many database references....
