For some time now, my company has been set on leaving WebObjects. We
have been running WebObjects 5.2 on Windows servers. We haven't
moved 100% yet, but my next project will be using JavaServer Faces.
And another fairly new project will be using OpenLaszlo with our
existing J2E back-end.
Company's reasons for leaving:
1. WebObjects is proprietary
2. New versions of WebObjects is not supported on Windows
3. Perceived lack of knowledgeable WebObjects programmers (I'm in the
Chicago suburbs -- Northbrook, IL, to be precise)
We do NOT use:
1. Xcode/WebObjects tools [Xcode or WOBuilder or EOModeler] (except
for me on a MacBook Pro -- only because I requested it)
2. EOF
3. WONDER
4. Servlet container (which I do not prefer anyway)
I personally enjoy WebObjects development and wish that WebObjects
would be more palatable to companies such as mine.
Please excuse the ranting, but I want someone at Apple to know that
as great as WebObjects technology is [I personally think it is the
BEST I've seen anywhere], it is losing ground because if it's lack in
thet top 3 items mentioned. I wish so bad that Apple would do
something about it.
I'm guessing people's response will be: Don't hold your breath.
Pity. :(
