Hi Ken, You checked the javadoc in ERXModel class, right?
IIRC, EntityModeler may not support extendedPrototypes in the way ERXModel does for runtime .... I may be wrong, but I have a vague recollection of EntityModeler not recognizing protos the way ERXModel javadoc says, but nevertheless all working at runtime. I have a project using extended prototypes and I use EOJDBCMySQLcheetahPrototypes where the model name is 'cheetah' and it works fine. The prototypes entity is in the cheetah model itself too. Turn on DEBUG logging for ERXModel and you should get a lot of console logging telling you which prototype entities are being loaded and in what order.
