This is the README file for ForeignControls 1.0PR1 (the official beta release). All executable code is time bombed and will expire on June, 17. Excerpt from Intro_ForeignControls.rtf: ForeignControls adds two user interface objects to the developer's toolkit which provide a lot of handy features, like chooser functionality, fetching over a relationship, looking up records through short cuts and incremental searching. Typically ForeignControls are used whenever data from an associated table is to be displayed (that's why they called 'Foreign' Controls, because usually there's a foreign key involved) or when it comes to narrowing down an ambiguous selection to a single record. All functionality of ForeignControls can be accessed from the keyboard without using the mouse. For most convenient use ForeignCotrols is shipped as an Interface Builder palette. Just by dragging a ForeignTextField or ForeignPopUp from the palette to your application, specifying the model, entity and property in the inspector and connecting to an EOController ForeignControls is ready to run.
