Hi!
I have been learning WO more or less from scratch for a while now and I
would recommend this way. First, get yourself a good Javabook that
makes you understand both Java and object oriented programming if you
are not used to that. While doing that I recommend reading as much as
possible about the general concepts of WO so you understand how it is
all pieced together. Then I would try either this on Apple4s site:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/WebObjects/Web_Applications/
index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30001010
or start following the example in this book:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/032111549X/
I would then buy all the other books (there are 6 for WO 5) but buy
Jessie Feilers book "Building WebObjects 5 Applications" as the last
one.
If your are developing on anything other than Mac OS X, which have a
good IDE for WO I think, I would have a look at Eclipse and the WOLips
extension.

Hello all.
After reading all the comments in the last 2 days I'm convinced to buy
myself my WO license to start learning it. I've been developing on
other tools and languages , not Java yet, and I have been looking the
market for the tools around to choose one and learn it.
All your comments on the product are really good and convinced me that
I have to switch to it. Fortunately I have the time to do it and a few
simple applications for clients to develop.
For a newbie like me on this .
- What would be your advice on the steps to follow? (I have experience
on ASP, PHP, VB).
I came from the generation where we read the manuals first, tried all
the samples and then start trying to solve small problems with the
tools/language.
- The documentations is good enough for that? (sorry if that sounds
stupid)
- A good book you suggest to buy? (not enough money for courses)
- Besides the Apple site, other good resources to look and learn?
- It is enough with the environment? Or should I buy another tools? (a
good editor is always your friend in the case of VB)
- What about third party tools? (in VB I had a set of good tools to
save time (the one from Infragistics)
- I'd like to became familiar with the tools in the next 6-8 months
and being able to develop simple applications by then. Is that unreal
goal?
Thanks in advance for all your comments and for sharing your knowledge.
