Yeah, I have a hard time criticizing the WROX book, as much as I want
to. Of all the WebObjects books out there that is the one I use most
regularly. Were the ease of use of Joshua Marker's book applied to D2W
I'd be in heaven. It was his book that got my first application done,
but what I want to do is put all our MS Access applications up on the
web, which is about twenty modules, so its worth the effort for me to
learn D2W.
Also, I have a business idea that only makes sense using something like
D2W.
As far as the log4j, I'm stuck on that. I see the sample but I don't
understand what to do with it. It seems to say paste the contents of
the sample file into your WebObjects.properties file in your home
folder. I've searched my whole drive, I don't have a
WebObjects.properties file anywhere...

Hi Justin,
Yeah, I've also found it very hard to get going with D2W and Wonder in
particular. The docs are really lacking. The best I've found in the
way of docs for d2w is the Wrox book, Professional WebObjects 5 with
Java. Even then I'm finding it hard to put into practice.
The stylesheet component I mentioned is actually ERXStylesheet and it
is in er.extensions. As far as getting started you need to add
references to ERDirectoweb.framework, ERExtensions.framework and
ERJars.framework to your project, then change your Application.java,
DirectAction.java, Session.java to extend the ERXApplication,
ERXDirectAction and ERXSession classes respectively. The application
also contains a reference to Application in the constructor which
should be changed to ERXApplication.
You also need to provide a log4j properties file. I think there are
some examples in the documentation on ERExtensions.
The d2w models all seem to be named d2w.d2wmodel and this appears to
work fine.
Good luck, I may have some questions for you as well. You may want to
check out the wonder-disc mailing list. You can find it on the
sourceforge project page.
Mike
