Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Oh well, WebObjects
Is in a state where I think I could reasonably sue for fraud and expect to win.

The dev tools are non-existent, its Java, but doesn't interop with standard java, uses its own incompatible collections classes, and claims to provide but doesn't actually allow dev teams on different platforms to share work.

I wish they'd give up on PBX and PBWO and put some effort into

1) making the entire build process ant driven (we already have here and I now have some cool ant tools - like EODoc that does for EOModels what JavaDoc does for Java and our own very simple GenEOs that doesn't rely on the messy cayenne lib and does generation gap EO generation).
2) Support Eclipse or netBeans so we can all use the same dev tools everywhere
3) Fix the bugs
4) Fix the rest of the bugs
5) Speed it up and then fix the resulting bugs
6) Give up on Frameworks and use Jars for everything.
7) Stick with NextStep property lists - the xml format is crap and java property lists are FLAT and therefore sucky.

Honestly, that team ought to be fired and replaced en masse.


I am out of the country for the duration of the Bush administration.
Please leave a message and I'll get back to you when democracy returns.
