Uh, another question. :) Since I have a custom EO super-super class,
I decided to try to implement this in takeStoredValueForKey(..).
It works, although I was also trying to post the "old" value, and
asking for this current value at this point makes EOF not so
happy...but that's not strictly required for my needs.
However, it does post notifications even for fetched objects, what
would be the best way to only post changes after fetching?
This might be closer to what you want:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/InternetWeb/Reference/WO542Reference/com/webobjects/eocontrol/EOObserverCenter.html
That would give you the "before" picture. You can set a flag there
too (or in willChange()). If the flag is set, then in
takeStoredValueForKey, you can send out the after notification and
clear the flag. willChange() will not get called for fetched objects.

Thanks. I figured there was nothing built to do exactly what I

Do you know if there is much overhead if I implemented this in my
EO
superclass even if there were no observers?
EOF makes heavy use of notification. I would not expect there to
be much
overhead. You will probably want to qualify the notification with
the EC
(depending on what it is you are trying to do) to limit the number
of
observers. And then keep the method receiving the notification
fast. The
notifications are synchronous, so you don't want anything slow in
this
method.

also, if you are using wonder, check out
hasKeyChangedFromCommittedSnapshot in ERXGenericRecord. maybe
listen
for the notification mentioned by chuck, then use
hasKeyChangedFromCommittedSnapshot to check the particular key
you are
looking at.

Thanks,

EOEditingContext has
ObjectsChangedInEditingContextNotification, but it
is
on an object by object basis, not a key by key one.
You could implement this in your EO super class.
