5 +This is the home page for WOProject/WOLips open source project.
6 +
7 +With the deprecation of the Apple-supplied WebObjects development tools in the WO5.4 timeframe, WOProject/WOLips has become the recommended toolset for WebObjects development and is the toolset that Apple itself uses internally.
8 +
9 +Almost all of the functionality provided by the Apple toolset (XCode, EOModeler, WOBuilder, etc) has been duplicated, greatly expanded upon or re-thought from the ground up in Eclipse and WOLips. WOProject/WOLips is the net effect of thousands of hours of freely-given and paid-for labor by many talented developers, and it is constantly improving.
10 +
11 +{{tip}}
12 +"constantly improving" ... at the turn of 2008 into 2009 WOLips made a large step forward (see [WOLips Blog|http://wolips.blogspot.com/]). Wiki's being what they are, this one has not yet caught up with that change -- most of what was true before is still true, but some is not, though what is not (mostly in the area of framework management) is better\!
13 +{{/tip}}
14 +
15 +WOProject/WOLips provides a more comprehensive and powerful toolset for developing Web, Web Service and Java Client applications than has ever been available before.
16 +
17 +== Installing WOProject/WOLips ==
18 +
19 +[[WOLips can be installed>>Installing WOLips]] in several different ways, ranging from a complete turn-key installer that will give you everything you need to get started, all the way down to the source code direct from the [[Github repository>>https://github.com/wolips/wolips]].
20 +
21 +== Troubleshooting Your Installation ==
22 +
23 +The number one cause of problems is a missing or incorrect [[wolips.properties]] file.
24 +
25 +== Migrating from Xcode-Based Development ==
26 +
27 +Once you have [[installed>>Installing WOLips]] WOLips you can move any existing Xcode projects to WOLips using one of the following methods, depending on the complexity of your migration.
28 +
29 +* If you only have a couple of frameworks and applications, and those projects are not very complex, you can do a [[manual migration>>Import an Xcode project into WOLips]].
30 +* If you have a couple of projects and you didn't put your components and classes in sub folders then try the "[[fleeto>>http://www.global-village.net/migrate.to.eclipse/home]]" script from [[Chuck Hill>>~~chuckhill]].
31 +* If you have a complex project and/or many projects, use the [[XcodeMigration]] tool from [[Pascal Robert>>~~probert]]. This is the recommended method for migration as it will greatly simplify migrating even a couple projects.
32 +
33 +== WOProject/WOLips Tutorials ==
34 +
35 +Once you are ready to start developing, look here for many helpful [[tutorials>>Tutorials]] and [[Screen/Podcast>>http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=270165303]] detailing how to make the most of WOProject/WOLips.
