Documentation is probably about the only weakness in WebObjects. Almost all of the Apple-written documentation was created with the now-deprecated Xcode-based toolset in mind. While the documentation still excellent at explaining many of WebObjects' core concepts like EOF, Components, etc., the UI of the Eclipse-based WOLips toolset is substantially different.

Since Apple is now distributing WebObjects for free there is no financial incentive to update the documentation to reflect the new development environment so Apple is no longer updating the documentation and considers it to be "Legacy" documentation. Don't let the name scare you off, it still holds a lot of incredibly useful information.
