Hola Pascal!
There are some things VERY strange with this preview's numbers...
besides that some numbers do not add up to 233 :-p
1. Mexico is not in the top 5
2. 5% of the community is planning to jump out the boat, no mater
what...
3. 44% still uses Xcode/PB as primary IDE.
4. only 12% develop outside OSX...
5. only 7% deploys in windows while almost 70% deploys in OSX...
This makes a question go round in my mind:
was it an intelligent move, to move out WO from its X-centrism?
Yes. Xcode is not a Java-centric IDE. Java developers need a proper
Java IDE as WebObjects is not the only Java platform in town.
of course, the 52% who use now E/WOL may say they benefit from
that; but, in perspective, WOL would never existed if WO had remain
X-centric, right?
Incorrect. WOL existed before WebObjects tools were deprecated.
all that effort could be putted in ... in something else, right?
By whom?
I repeat, only 12% develop outside OSX --- why should we worry that
much about them ;^(
Because WebObjects deploys to any platform. WebObjects should
therefore be developed on any platform.
May be there should be another question somewhere in the survey:
do you use other Java-frameworks to build your WO apps?
Yes.
how many?
Depends on the task at hand.
does they exists in/for Cocoa?
No. The Cocoa-Java bridge is deprecated.
with regards,
