Thanks to both David and Denis. WOHost and WOPort in the Resources->Properties file is exactly what I needed.

But that leads me to another question. The Properties file states, in part, "The properties listed are only examples, and are not intended to be comprehensive." Is there a comprehensive list somewhere, complete with definitions of what the various properties do? I've only been through a small portion of the WebObjects documentation, but a quick search for "WOHost" and "WOPort" in the other docs that I have, but have not yet read, don't yield any results.

Is there something similar to Xcode's "Build Settings Notes" or "Expert Preferences Notes" for WebObjects?

Forgive me if this is a FAQ. I couldn't find any mention in the list archives, but that may be because I didn't think up a good enough query.

I've been playing around with WebObjects, going through the docs and doing the examples. I've found that whenever I "Build and Run" a Web Objects Web Application project from Xcode, it always uses a URL which incorporates the internet domain name of my machine, e.g.:

http://MyHostName.com:55245/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyProject.woa

It also picks some random port number. Well, I have both a hardware firewall, and the OS X firewall running. So of course this never works. I always have to change MyHostName to localhost, and then it works.

I also see this in the Run window:

Created adaptor of class WODefaultAdaptor on port 55245 and address MyHostName.com/192.168.1.2 with WOWorkerThread minimum of 16 and maximum of 256

I couldn't find any documentation on WODefaultAdaptor either. Is there some setting somewhere that I could change so that the WODefaultAdaptor uses 'localhost'? Alternatively, is there a way I could tell it to always use the same port number? At least that way I could open up a hole in my firewalls for that port and then it would work.

look at the Properties file.

to change the port:

WOPort=9080
WOHost=localhost

thats all.

David
