Re: WebObjects on XP - Cannot execute auto launch

Here's the hack I found:

Add this method to your Application.java file and it should work

 public boolean _isSupportedDevelopmentPlatform() {
          // TODO Auto-generated method stub
          String s = System.getProperty("os.name");
          return (super._isSupportedDevelopmentPlatform()
||s.equals("Windows XP"));
    }


works like a charm. I found this somewhere on the Web, apologies to
the source for not acknowledging...
