mogenerator sans Core Data

Cocoa

Dan Wood graciously offers alternative mogenerator templates which generate classes which don’t rely on Core Data.

These templates instead generate instance variable declarations, associated accessor/mutators and even a -dealloc method.

In case it’s not immediately obvious, the practical upside of Dan’s contribution is that you can use Xcode’s Core Data modeling tools to model your Cocoa application. Even if you’re targeting a version of Mac OS X that doesn’t offer Core Data!

So if you’re stuck targeting 10.3 (or earlier!) and thus think you can’t play in the Core Data kiddie pool, Dan’s addition are water wings for you to splash about in the shallow end. Have fun.
