Like, for example, you are using WebObjects? :-P Seriously, Pierre,
take a look at Wonder now. It is not like it was a couple of years
ago. Thanks to Anjo, it long longer sleeps with your cattle and
steals your wife. It does what you tell it to, nothing more. And,
yes, if you tell it to, it will patch _bugs_ in WebObjects.
Without it you have (a) deadlocking D2W and (b) no locking for
anything other than the session.defaultEditingContext(). That latter
alone is worth using Wonder, for all but the most trivial applications.
It's not the old Wonder. True fact.

I would totally disagree with that. Wonder introduce another layer
of complexity and patching on top of WO. I think you should only use
Wonder if you have a good reason for it.

aha ok...
This is what I decided something what I posted in a previous
thread. I will develop my Software Engineering class final project
in parallel with WO, so at the end I will show the teacher what
are the differences between EO, Hibernate and WO. SO ok I will
start doing it in wonder. SO be prepare for a lot of questions I
already have in my mind, hehe, but of course I will make some
tutorial first, I will watch again the screen-cast :P. if for some
reason I see I can't achive the goal I will go to normal WO
development.. hopefully i will not do that.
well what do you think?
Building on top of Wonder needn't impact your development at all
unless you want it to.
You will benefit without even knowing it.
However, there is the danger that you could get so caught up
investigating all of the cool toys in Wonder that you didn't get
any real work done. :-) But then that's not Wonder's fault now is it.

Im just "wondering" what's better for me, you know guys im
really newbie. To keep learning concepts of WO or learn them and
develop in Wonder?
For a new WO developer, I think there are amazing benefits for
starting with Wonder.
Is wonder big? Yes.
Is it hard to fully understand? Definitely.
Do you need to understand all of it to benefit from it?
Absolutely not.
If you:
1. Use the WOLips WOnder Application template
2. Generate your EOs with the WonderEntity.java/
_WonderEntity.java templates
3. Always user ERXEC.newEditingContext() to obtain a new
EOEditingContext
You will benefit from a ton of bug fixes and helpful code that
fix things that are hard to fix otherwise without having to
change much else.
Let the debate commence :-)
