Developing with WebObjects for more than 10 years, I wanted but feared to upgrade WebObjects from 5.3 to 5.4.3 and FrontBaseSQL from 32 to 64 bits, when it works, why change ?
Following the advice of Pascal Robert about WOLips 3.7, I decided to upgrade... all
After a (long) week of work : - our apps work well - ajax is better than ever (we don't use wonder except ajax and plugins framework) - frontbase is faster than ever
For those who want to upgrade : - just think that wonder's FrontBase PlugIn works, that's not true for the one shippedwith webobjects 5.4.3 - you don't need to patch WOImage and others anymore, they are xhtml compliants - take care if you use WORadioButtonList, it now adds <div>
For those who use Chuck's "Practical WebObjects" :
Ciao,

P.S. : +1 for those who contributed in one way or another to all the tools mentioned |
