5 +Download Xcode 3 from [[ADC>>http://developer.apple.com/leopard/devcenter/]], the WebObjects frameworks are included in this package. You will have to make a custom install and select //WebObjects// in the package list since WebObjects is not part of the default installation.

7 +Install [[Eclipse 3.3.1.1>>http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=//eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.3.1.1-200710231652/eclipse-SDK-3.3.1.1-macosx-carbon.tar.gz]] (yes that's an extra .1) which fixes the permgen space bug from 3.3.1

210 += Developing with both WebObjects 5.4 and 5.3 =
211 +
212 +The following can be done a couple ways, but this is just how I happened to have things setup in betas, so I kept it (it worked for me):
213 + Make a ///System/Library/Frameworks/WebObjects54// folder, and move the following frameworks from the 5.4 install into it:
214 +
215 +{{code}}
216 +
217 +JavaDTWGeneration.framework
218 +JavaDirectToWeb.framework
219 +JavaEOAccess.framework
220 +JavaEOApplication.framework
221 +JavaEOControl.framework
222 +JavaEODistribution.framework
223 +JavaEOGeneration.framework
224 +JavaEOInterface.framework
225 +JavaEOInterfaceCocoa.framework
226 +JavaEOInterfaceSwing.framework
227 +JavaEOProject.framework
228 +JavaEORuleSystem.framework
229 +JavaEOTool.framework
230 +JavaFoundation.framework
231 +JavaJDBCAdaptor.framework
232 +JavaJNDIAdaptor.framework
233 +JavaWOExtensions.framework
234 +JavaWOJSPServlet.framework
235 +JavaWebObjects.framework
236 +JavaWebServicesClient.framework
237 +JavaWebServicesGeneration.framework
238 +JavaWebServicesSupport.framework
239 +JavaXML.framework
240 +
241 +{{/code}}
242 +
243 +Make a ///System/Library/Frameworks/WebObjects53// folder, and move the following frameworks from your old 5.3 install into it (I tar'd these up from 5.3 before upgrading, but you can download 5.3 and extract these from the pkg, or POSSIBLY install them with the actually installer ... YMMV on that one)
244 +
245 +{{code}}
246 +
247 +JavaDTWGeneration.framework
248 +JavaDirectToWeb.framework
249 +JavaEOAccess.framework
250 +JavaEOApplication.framework
251 +JavaEOCocoa.framework
252 +JavaEOControl.framework
253 +JavaEODistribution.framework
254 +JavaEOGeneration.framework
255 +JavaEOInterface.framework
256 +JavaEOInterfaceCocoa.framework
257 +JavaEOInterfaceSwing.framework
258 +JavaEOProject.framework

268 +JavaWebServicesGeneration.framework
269 +JavaWebServicesSupport.framework
270 +JavaXML.framework
271 +
272 +{{/code}}
273 +
274 +I then use the following two scripts to be able to switch between using 5.3 and 5.4 system wide:
275 +
276 +{{code}}
277 +
278 +bash-3.2# cat wo53
279 +for framework in `ls /System/Library/Frameworks/WebObjects53`; do rm /System/Library/Frameworks/$framework; ln \-sf /System/Library/Frameworks/WebObjects53/$framework /System/Library/Frameworks/$framework; done
280 +bash-3.2# cat wo54
281 +for framework in `ls /System/Library/Frameworks/WebObjects54`; do rm /System/Library/Frameworks/$framework; ln \-sf /System/Library/Frameworks/WebObjects54/$framework /System/Library/Frameworks/$framework; done
282 +
283 +{{/code}}
284 +
285 +At this point, you should have NO WO frameworks in /System/Library/Frameworks they should be in subfolders.
286 +
287 +Now go ahead and run wo53, which should now give you WO 5.3 framework symlinks.
288 +
289 +You may need to do a clean build of your projects in Eclipse If things are setup properly, you should not get any Java errors you didn't already have.
