Well, thank you all again for your feedback. After looking at some of
the
links and info that you all have forwarded, I have come to the
following two
conclusions...
First, WebObjects DOES appear to be a rather powerful web development
platform -- probably the one I will proceed with.
=:o
Second, the documentation
that Apple provides sucks big time!
Here, you have a point!! The documentation provided from NeXT was to
much better than the first attempts made by Apple... how ever, I have
to accept that, in version 5.2 of WO, the docs are getting better.
Since the learning curve of WO it "deep", I think that Apple most made
an effort to simplify the way for newbies; you can see that in this
list, there are tons of newbies cuestions which most be answered by
people (like Art ---thanks man!!!!!! ) insteed of being answered by a
GOOD inline-documentation.
On the other hand, once you learn to navigate into the docs, almost
every single detail is there... the problem is to find it.
As I had mentioned, I had gone through their little tutorials
regarding Web
Services and Web Applications. Unfortunately, there is nothing
anywhere
that gets into any real-life concepts beyond that of just tying a
WOString
object to a method. Also, most of the docs simply have you follow
along and
tell you what to do without ever explaining the concept behind the
process.
Once again this is not exact! As I said, the in-box docs gives a good
panorama of what is going on front-and-behind the scenes... can be
better, but if you jumped out from the Overview to the WebApplications
(or even better, JavaClient Desktop Applications), you will be on the
track.
So, again, thanks for shedding more light on the subject. Now, I'm
off to
the bookstore...
Keep going!
