Hi James,
You can use reflection to call that entity’s static method. You just need to
discover the corresponding class name for that entity in the first place.
String entityName = "YourEntityName";
EOEntity entity = EOModelGroup.defaultGroup().entityNamed(entityName);
Class<?> clazz = Class.forName(entity.className());
Method method = clazz.getMethod("yourStaticMethodName");
method.invoke(null);
Is that what you want?
Cheers,
Henrique
