No, this setting just makes sure these models load first, so it
moves them up to the front of the model load order.
I wonder why this solved my original problem then. In my original
post I didn't go on to mention that as soon as I tried to use an
entity in my model referring to my own Prototypes, the application
died with an NPE in PostgresqlExpression.columnTypeStringForAttribute,
which was what lead me to suspect the prototypes (and scroll up and
read the log output!) in the first place. Was it just that my own
Prototypes simply weren't being loaded early enough?
file:/Library/Frameworks/ERPrototypes.framework/Resources/
erprototypes.eomodeld) has an entity name conflict with the
entities ("EOJDBCPrototypes") already in the model group
<EOModelGroup ( ( Prototypes,
file:/Users/paulh/Projects/WebObjects/Eclipse/LSWOPrototypes/build/
LSWOPrototypes.framework/Resources/Prototypes.eomodeld ) )>
If they both define the same entity name, there is nothing you can
do. If you can rename the other entity, I believe ERPrototypes does
NOT define "EOPrototypes," so you can rename it to that and at least
have access to your other prototype attributes. If there are no
attribute name collisions, this MIGHT be enough to make things work.
I can rename the entity in my own Prototypes model. Just to be clear,
though, the application is working again. I'm seeing that warning
about the duplicate entity names, but it doesn't seem to matter. All
models seem to be finding the relevant prototypes despite the
duplicate entity names.
(Will renaming my prototypes entity to "EOPrototypes" affect Entity
Modeler?)
Thanks for these and your other answers, Mike.
