jquery vs. prototype vs. x-library? (James C. Lee)

If you want a library for the purposes of Ajax then stick with Prototype because it's what the Wonder Ajax frameworks uses and most is already done for you. I'm a big fan and user of JQuery and use it with WebObjects no problems, but try both and just pick what suits you best for the things you want to implement that aren't already in Wonder. To use the two together is possible although it proliferates the number of .js you'll be calling. i.e. let Wonder do it's magic, then do your own things in JQuery. To make them behave together nicely check out JQuery.noConflict() http://docs.jquery.com/ Using_jQuery_with_Other_Libraries

Hi there.



I would like to give WO a spin but I am currently running on MS only. Is
there a way to install and run WO 5.4 on a Windows PC (Eclipse/ WOlibs)? Even
more important: Is there a legal way to download the WO libs from somewhere?
My understanding is that it comes preinstalled on a Mac but I could not find
it on the web.




Thanks!

elni

I've been using prototype (http://prototypejs.org) + x-library
(http://cross-browser.com) for a while now. But just came across jquery
(http://jquery.com) today, and it looks quite good.


I've only tinkered with jquery a bit so far, and like what I see.

Before I dive head first to start to migrate to jquery, I'd love to hear the
collective wisdom on these or other javascript libraries from this list. I'm
sure I'm not alone. :-)


Thanks!

^James

Hi!

   WebObjects is 100% pure Java, so you can develop on any platform
with a JVM that supports Java 5.

   You need Eclipse and WOLips, and the WO frameworks.

   Eclipse and WOLips is easy to install, of course. The WO
frameworks are not so easy, but you can see the procedure here:
<http://wiki.objectstyle.org/confluence/display/WOL/Usage+for
+Windows>. You must obtain them on a Mac OS X installation (they are
available for download on Apple's site, but they come in a DMG that
you can only open on Mac OS X). You can use them legally on Windows
as long as you have a (legal!) Mac OS X copy.

   So, techincally: grab a Mac, download the file, extract the
frameworks, copy them to your PC.

   Legally: buy a copy of Mac OS X, and keep it around, even if you
never open the box.

   Yours

Thank you Miguel. Information about WO is not as wide-spread as RoR or
ASP.NET, so your links are very appreciated.
I will try to get hold of a legal OSX copy and go for it. If it doesn´t work
-> I would like to get a Mac anyway... so that might even come in handy as a
good excuse to finally get one :).


Thanks again.

I'm attempting to write out a plist after reading and altering it, however I haven't found a class/method to do so. I am using NSPropertyListSerialization to read the file. Is there a class I'm overlooking, or is there no simple way to write out a plist?

TIA.
