All,

I suppose that I wasn't entirely clear with my question. I know that web objects is written in Java, implementing a number of the Cocoa classes. My question is why use a product like WOs when classes that perform an equivalent function generally exist in the current Java spec.

What can I do with the WebOjects classes that I can't do with generic Java? And if there is essentially little or no additional funcationality, why add the extra layer of code? (I'm under the impression that there are few, if any, WO classes that can't be mapped to one or more Java classes in combination that perform the same function.)

In addition the the other 99% of very important WO functionality that you are totally ignoring, most of the Java API is horrific to use. The WO versions are much nicer.

Ahhhh came on! You are telling me you can't recall stuff like knowing the difference between replace and replaceAll on Strings without checking the docs? It's SO obvious! :P


  Yours
