So, Eldritch Knight says
That basically says they do NOT gain spells known if they are a prepared caster. If so, it's kind of inconvenient for wizards. They have a Spellbook ability that does not improve with EK. It's worse for witches; I was toying with the idea of a fighter/witch/edlritch knight, which is just a really cool concept, and I noticed that a strict interpretation looks like it might cause them to stop gaining patron spells. So in addition to the problem wizards may have (having to purchase/scrounge/steal new spells), a witch EK's spell list is actually slightly smaller.

At the indicated levels, an eldritch knight gains new spells per day as if he had also gained a level in an arcane spellcasting class he belonged to before adding the prestige class. He does not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained, except for additional spells per day, spells known (if he is a spontaneous spellcaster), and an increased effective level of spellcasting. If a character had more than one arcane spellcasting class before becoming an eldritch knight, he must decide to which class he adds the new level for purposes of determining spells per day.
