I appreciate the advice. I now have Eclipse up an WOLips

In one of the links provided by Chuck, I noticed that apache can be
used as the webserver for WO. Is this the standard now? Reason I
ask is because I have plenty of Linux boxes with apache on them
lying around with which I can play, and really do not want to use
my xserve if I don't have to. (I like it doing what's it doing).
You can deploy on Linux, but some extra steps are needed to build the
Apache module for WO on your specific Linux distro. I don't have any
links handy for the steps.

Xcode and friends (WOBuilder, etc) have been deprecated by Apple
for WO development only; Xcode is still active for Cocoa.

I wrote a fairly in-depth tutorial for writing a first project in
WO, using Eclipse and WOLips. It can be found at http://
wotutorial.furfly.com. It's due for an update (despite only
having been published for about a month) which I hope to have done
in a week or so.

Yes I need to freshen up on what libraries are out there for me
to use so i don't reinvent the wheel, but I can get arond Java fine.
Xcode and EOModeler are dead. Do not use them. Just don't.
Use Eclipse and WOLips.
OK. I'll go look those up now. Why do you say the Apple tools
are dead? Do you mean dead for just the webobject creation? I
kinda like it for ObjC tools and desktop apps.
The app server, such as it is, is part of the development
install as well. It is not like other app servers, it is rather
tiny and inconspicuous. Don't worry about it. It just works.
OK. I'll take your word for it once I get a project in place.
If I have questions on Eclipse and WOLips I'll write back.
Thanks.

Hello All,
I am new to webobjects but not new to web application
programming. I have recently started developing for the Mac
Platform and am no interested in using Apple's webobjects frame
work. here is my situation:
I am a longtime php and postgresql on apache developer. I have
a Dual G5 xserve running OS X Server 10.4.10. Currently the
xserve is only configured as a file & print server. I also
have an intel mac pro as my development station running OS X
10.4.10 with all the Xcode & webobjects development tools
installed.
Do you know Java? If not, get a good book on Java. I like

I would like to do the following:
1) install the webobjects application server on my workstation
(not running server) so I can tool around without affecting my
xserve.
The app server, such as it is, is part of the development
install as well. It is not like other app servers, it is rather
tiny and inconspicuous. Don't worry about it. It just works.
2) In xcode/eomodeler
Xcode and EOModeler are dead. Do not use them. Just don't.
Use Eclipse and WOLips.

i would like to know how to install the jdbc drivers for
postgresql. i placed the driver in /Library/Java/Extensions
and included the proper path
Which path? No need for the JDBC driver path. Other things are
needed.
in a HelloWorld project i started. after creating some simple
entities following the documentation guide I tried to generate
the sql and i got an error about my classpath being wrong.
even after exporting the above path into the CLASSPATH variable
in my shell, xcode and webobjects don't see it. How do I add
the jdbc driver so that the dev environment can use it ?
Classpath is irrelevant. Use the new tools.
