Alex's EOModeler

The good news about AJRDatabase is that the compiled version at SourceForge simply runs on Leopard. For, simply copy the EOModeler application to your ~/Developer/Applications folder, the AJRFoundation, AJRInterface, EOAccess and EOControl frameworks to your ~/Library/Frameworks folder, and the Postgres eoadaptor to your ~/Library/Database Adaptors folder... if you have a running Postgres database, you will be able to connect and reverse engine it after double-clicking on Alex's tool.

Nice work!!!

Now I will need to find or develop a Sybase eoadaptor... I hope it is not another nightmare...

AJRDatabase; Leopard Vs. Tiger

More frustration...
the EOModeler of Alex was done in an old OS X version and uses some methods which had been deprecated in 10.4 (e.g., the NSFont method - (CGFloat)widthOfString:(NSString *)aString); even though it compile in Tiger, it does not in Leopard. So, I will have to debug his code and "repair" it before I can compile-and-run it into Leopard.
