I've been using glassfish recently (Sun's reference Jave EE app
server) and with Netbeans 6, the support is excellent.
Of course it's completely cross-platform from a development and
deployment point of view.
It can use any DB, but JavaDB/Derby is there as standard. Mac clients
come with sqlite, and there are jdbc drivers for that.
Persistence comes from the standard Java Persistance stuff, which is
fairly pleasant, and again, Netbeans integration is good.
In other client projects, I've been using Hibernate/HSQL and WebLogic,
a far more painful experience (and WL is not on Mac IIRC).

I'm new to development on the Mac. I'm looking for recommendation
for developing server-side (database-centric) Java apps on the Mac.
I took a look at WebObjects and I was wondering whether anybody has
used it for that purpose (I see that some WebObjects tools are being
deprecated). I would like to be able to deploy my apps to any app
server on any OS platform without having to change these apps too
much for each specific runtime environment (I would, however,
consider optimization for runtime on a Mac server, if necessary).
Any advice? (I'm willing to learn new tools if I have to).
Thanks.
