Hi all,

I've been trying to override some EOCustomObject methods to perform event firing. However, I bumped into a problem when the objects are first being initialized with values. The thing is, i use the old value in the fired event. This meant my takeStoredValue method looks like this:


public void takeStoredValueForKey(Object object, String key){
                Object oldValue = FIRE_EVENTS  ? valueForKey(key) : null;
                super.takeStoredValueForKey(object, key);
                if(FIRE_EVENTS) fireDataObjectEvent(key, oldValue);
        }


However, during the first initialization of the EO the first line of the method (getting of the old value) triggers a fault to fire, which triggers EOF to get the value and set it on the EO using the takeStoredValueForKey(..) method. Which ends up in an infinite loop. Bummer.

What I've tried is printing a stack trace of an exception as the first line in the takeStoredValueForKey(..) method, hoping to find out which method was calling it. Then I'd override that method, to skip event firing during the initialization (by setting the FIRE_EVENTS flag to false during it's duration). But, the stack trace does not imply any method in which I could do that (I edited out all the trace elements that are not from com.webobjects...):

Anyone has any idea how I could do this? If not, I am stuck with events being fired only in value setters.

Thx
