Hi All, (quiet list last 2 days?)
As we know this EOAttribute.validateValue(...) gets called before
custom eo validate<AttributeName> methods and it uses the class
description to validate and/or do basic conversion. What are the
alternatives to find an elegant way to call my custom validate first
or is there none?
Why do I want to do this? I am importing text data from CSV files and
pushing the text values into attributes in an efficient way, however
I can easily handle conversion of YES/NO, T/F, Y/N, Y/null or TRUE/
FALSE strings to Boolean in my custom validate<BooleanAttribute>
methods, but of course EOF gets a shot at it first when I iterate
through the imported values calling eo.validateTakeValueForKeyPath
(aValue, aKey);
I have an alternative in mind, but just wanted to check with the
smart folks first .... any suggestions?
I am thinking overriding validateValueForKey in
ERXEntityClassDescription is also a possibility ..... any others?
Regards, Kieran
