Hi, I have information stored in an entity's userInfo dictionary used to categorise the entity. What I would like to do is provide access to that information from a subclass of EOEntityClassDescription (as the docs suggest) and provide this subclass in a framework (among other things). This extra entity information is to be used in a number of places - different apps/frameworks and in places within EOF where all you have access to is an entity name. EOF provides an efficient way of handling class descriptions (they are cached) and a convenient way to get one from an entity name (EOClassDescription's static/class method). The other reason for providing access to the extra entity info in this way is that it hides the details of how the information is stored - the info may need to be stored elsewhere, or in a different format, and each app that uses this framework/eomodel wouldn't have to change the it accesses the info. (here's the problem!) EOF's default way of providing needed EOClassDescriptions is through a notification (EOClassDescriptionNeeded...) that the EOModel responds to - it creates and registers an EOEntityClassDescription. How can I get the EOModel to create and register my subclass rather than the standard EOEntityClassDescription class? Thanks, Richard
