Would You Use WOs On A New Project

Hello.

First off, let me say that I absolutely love what Apple has done with Cocoa.
(I owned a NeXTStation '040 back in the mid 1990s and now wish I had
done more software development with it instead of trading it for a Sun Sparc 5,
but hindsight is 20/20. )


I'm in the process of working up an idea for a client/server application that will
have a rich front end written in Cocoa as well as a web-based front end.
Most, if not all, of the server-based portion of the application will be
written in Java.


When Web Objects first appeared, the Java API was rather sparse.
There wasn't support for a number of classes that exist now, and using WOs
made a lot sense. Given that I am already familiar with Cocoa classes,
using WOs still makes some sense given that it implements many of the Cocoa
classes that I am familiar using and makes database access a little easier.


My question is this, given the rich API that Java offers today, why should I use
Web Objects on a new project?



Thanks in advance, Nolan Whitaker http://www.NolanWhitaker.com
