Wow. You might want to look to hire a consultant, at least for a

Objective C has not been supported with webobjects for about 6
years. (That's a shame, but not within our control). You will need
the WebObjects 4.5 development environment in order to develop/
maintain the site. Did the original programmer leave anything
useful lying around, such as a development machine?
Once in a while you can find it on eBay. I recently gave away my
copy. Someone else here might have a copy. But it sounds like you
only have access to the deployed app. Without the source code, there
is little you can do.

Hello,
I inherited a WebObjects based site. I could use some
hints and guidance. It looks like this community is
alive and thriving. So that's a positive sign. :)
I've been making modifications to the ".wo"
collections inside a WOApp. (i.e. the html file and
the .wod file). Sometimes my mods break the
functionality (such as when a Javascript menu is
generated from somewhere dynamically), but other times
I can make modes in the PageName.wo directory with
negative consequence.
Can anyone suggest what docs I should read, initially,
to get a handle on this web application?
I'd like to re-claim administrative and programmatic
control, as it is simply been hacked on here and
there. BTW, Is there a "main crank" to turn somewhere
in WebObjects (i.e. to produce a new build with new
binaries)?
If I slurp it all into a XCode (or Eclipse) project,
any tips on what to configure where? (and how?)
I'm guessing ObjC is not ported to C2D yet, which
means I need to use a Motorola-based workstation. Are
most ObjC WOApps being ported to Java, or not
necessarily?
Thank you,
M
