Developers should create their own. Unfortunately that message was either never understood by anyone other than Anjo or ignored. In fact almost everywhere in Wonder’s source code it assumes erprototypes if not otherwise specified. Sigh. I’m planning on a commit at some point in the near future that will either add a new ERPrototypes framework with unbroken prototypes, or fix the existing ERPrototypes which WILL break running apps. Either way, it won’t happen without lots of up-front communication and cooperation - so don’t worry for now. All my new projects I start with my own prototypes model. Now onto your real question. > However, some projects (especially the legacy ones) require project specific > prototypes. Anyone have a good way to use multiple sources of prototype > attributes? Yup. You can specify what Prototypes to use per Model with a … you guessed it: a property! See ERXModelGroup for a plethora of model-related properties, but I think the one you are looking for is: [MODEL_NAME].EOPrototypesFile So: MyEOModel.EOPrototypesFile=MyPrototypes.eomodeld Good luck! Dave P.S. Missed you at WOWODC. I stayed surprisingly sober. It’s all your fault. A fun group of 5 Germans did a good job of trying to replace 1 Icelandic crazy man, but fell short - we found our way back to the Hotel on only the 2nd try. > > If not, I’m thinking I’ll have to specify “fake” prototype names in the > attributes’ userInfos and do some runtime substitution.
