Hello all
I am new to WO and very concerned with his future as i did some
investment of time and money to learn it.
I also read the Apple statement "Xcode 2.4 deprecation announcements"
and in it i read this :
" Apple's strategy is to make WebObjects the best server-side
runtime environment we can by:
- Improving performance, manageability, and standards compliance
Better than today for me it's a positive point, surely it will be
pure java at all levels (cf the cocoa-java bridge deprecation)
- Making WO work well with ANT and the most popular IDEs, including
Xcode and Eclipse
so i want to think that developing WO App with Xcode (and/or Eclipse
+ ANT) will be even better than now
- Opening and making public all standards and formats that WO
depends upon
to help the open source comnunity's work of doing new open source
tools and by the way increase the visibility, perennity, legacy and
"Aura" of WebObjects
We view the WebObjects community as a partner in creating great
development and client-side WebObjects tools, however we do not
officially endorse any specific project and want to encourage
variety within the community. We will work to assist the
community where technical assistance or specifications are needed
and have already been working with several open source projects. "
So Yes it's clear that Apple will give up the improvement of all its
today WO developer tools, but as they say that they "have already
been working with several open source projects", i want to think that
they will integrate some of them in Xcode, in order to still provide
a complete solution. I think of the integration od EntityModeler for
example in place of EOModeler…
Wouldn't be great if we had better Java development in Xcode (coding
and debugging side, after all that's the promise of Xcode 3) with
integration of some open-source project ?
The <<however we do not ""officially"" endorse any specific project>>
make me think that way.
However i still have 2 years to really get familiar to WO as it is,
after this doing some transition will be less painful…
Regards.
