Hi,
I just purchased WO 5.2 and am running it on
Windows 2000 Professional. I like Java development, and things are peachy,
with some exceptions which I hope you can help me with:
1) There seems to be no online help for the
application suite. For example, from Project Builder, the Help/Using the
Tools command yields this message: "File
C:\Apple\Documentation\Developer\YellowBox\Maps\UsingTools.html does not
exist." From within WebObjects Builder, pressing the book icon on the
Inspector panel yields this message: "Sorry, documentation does not exist for
"WOSubmitButton"." The Java Class Browser help gives the message: "Help
isn't available for NT." RuleEditor also says: "Help isn't available for
NT." And InterfaceBuilder Help says nothing.
I have read through the documentation which came
with the software ("Inside WebObjects Web Applications") and bought Joshua
Marker's book (for OS X, so there are important differences in the behavior of
the softare). Also, after searching my hard drive, I have found some HTML
and PDF documents which are references on foundation classes, and WO dynamic
elements (Many developer document links for these were broken, however, and the
referenced documents aren't on my drive.) My current process for
working in WO would be better if the contextual help menus of my
applications sent me to usable information.
2) When a project is run from Project Builder,
there are some buttons for stepping through the code. However, I have not
seen any documentation on the use of these tools. Can you direct me to a
document on using these to debug? (Right now, my only debugging options
are to read the compiler and runtime output of my application, and to insert
System.out.println() calls in my Java code.)
Thank you,
Rick Penner
