Ok one more question. Let's say I have foo1.4.jar and foo1.5.jar. And one project depends on foo1.4.jar and another framework depends on foo1.5.jar. How are different versions handled normally? Two separate frameworks, one for each version?

It all comes down to versioning in your source control. I'd just have one framework. An earlier version, checked into your source control and labelled, would have foo1.4.jar. A more more modern version would have the foo1.5.jar. The build for each app would check out the revision that it depended on.

Notice that you already have a problem with both log4j-1.2.4.jar and log4j-1.2.14.jar in that directory! Which gets used?
Also, if you're deploying 5.3 vs 5.4, this is a disaster, because axis is a different version in that directory. I don't know why anything is in that dir but I can't think of a single reason why those shouldn't all be proper frameworks.

Ok... So it seems like /Library/WebObjects/Extensions should be cleared in both development and deployment servers. Then put those jars somewhere else and if we need them then we should put them in a framework and then add the framework to the project's class path.

I agree.


And it would be nice if Apple didn't install anything there so we don't have to remember to clear that directory (or move that content somwhere else) after installing or upgrading the webobjects installation. I wonder if a bug has been filed to make those proper frameworks and clear that folder.


Or just remove this from the WOLips classpath and launcher (if it is included). Mike was considering rewriting the wobootstrap loader, getting it to NOT load these jars would be easy. Then Apple can put whatever they want in here.
