I have a command line tool and I use the Manifest.mf file to set class path.

Example:
Class-Path: jars/itoolsutils.jar jars/javaeoaccess.jar jars/ javaeocontrol.jar jars/javafoundation.jar jars/javaxml.jar ...

This eliminates a lot of typing and errors.

I'm tempted to say "nothing" although of course there must be a difference:

NetBeans:
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaEOAccess.framework/Resources/Java/ javaeoaccess.jar /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaFoundation.framework/Resources/Java/ javafoundation.jar /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaEOControl.framework/Resources/Java/ javaeocontrol.jar
/Library/Java/Extensions/frontbasejdbc.jar
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaJDBCAdaptor.framework/Resources/Java/ javajdbcadaptor.jar

CLI:
java -jar EOFTest.jar -cp /System/Library/Frameworks/ JavaEOAccess.framework/Resources/Java/javaeoaccess.jar:/System/ Library/Frameworks/JavaFoundation.framework/Resources/Java/ javafoundation.jar:/System/Library/Frameworks/ JavaEOControl.framework/Resources/Java/javaeocontrol.jar:/Library/ Java/Extensions/frontbasejdbc.jar:/System/Library/Frameworks/ JavaJDBCAdaptor.framework/Resources/Java/javajdbcadaptor.jar

But still:
NSBundle.mainBundle() on NetBeans = "<com.webobjects.foundation.NSBundle name:'JavaFoundation' bundlePath:'/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaFoundation.framework' packages :'(com.webobjects.foundation,com.webobjects.foundation.xml )' 215 classes >"

That is wrong. NSBundle can default to JavaFoundation when it can't find the actual main bundle.


NSBundle.mainBundle() on CLI: null

I guess the questions are:
- can I get EOF to run without the NSBundle stuff
- or can I setup an NSBundle programmatically

I think you are running into path problems. NSBundle expects things to be in specific paths. I am not sure how it handles this with jar frameworks.

I suspect that if you made a directory structure like an app

EOFTest.woa/
        Contents/
                Resources/
                        Java/
                                EOFTest.jar

Then
cd EOFTest.woa
java -jar Contents/Resources/Java/EOFTest.jar -cp ....

That is would work.

I'm trying to access database data with EOF in a command line Java app. These few lines of code work perfectly as long as I run them in NetBeans but fail miserably when I try to run them on the CLI:

    EOModelGroup mg = new EOModelGroup();
    EOModelGroup.setDefaultGroup(mg);
URL url = this.getClass().getResource("/eoftest/ coach.eomodeld");
    mg.addModelWithPathURL(url);
    EOEditingContext ec = new EOEditingContext();
EOFetchSpecification f = new EOFetchSpecification("Coach", null, null); System.out.println("" + ec.objectsWithFetchSpecification(f).count() + " coaches found!");

The reason for this - as far as I can tell - is, that when running it from NetBeans, the app as a main bundle and framework bundles, but it does not when I run it on the CLI (NSBundle.mainBundle() = 0, NSBundle.frameworkBundles() = empty). Now, I don't know how NetBeans gets these bundles and that's not the issue. I would like to know however how I can use EOF properly outside a wo app with frameworks etc. Has anyone done this? Could you give me some pointers?

What's different about the classpath?

with regards,
