hi,
the difference between 1.* and 1.1:
WOLips 1.1 stores the principal class in the build.properties. The new
build.xml takes the value from the build.properties for the principal class.

Hi!
I am still running Eclipse 2.1.1 with an older version of WOLips. Thus I
can't give definitive answers about the new beta.
The notion of Principal Class however is a WebObjects one. A bundle
(framework or application) may have a principal class. That class is touched
when the bundle is loaded. Thus static initializers in that class get a
chance to initialize other classes of the bundle before they get used. Refer
to the NSBundle documentation for mor information.
In the version of WOLips I am running the application class name is set by
an argument to the <woapplication> task in the build.xml file. Oddly enough
that argument is called "principalClass" which is the same name as the one
used to set the principal class on a framework.

Subject: WOLips 1.1.0.82 beta 3, Principle Class, and ApplicationClass
I'm wondering what the new fields on the WOLips Build panel are for?
I thought maybe Principal Class field would set the ApplicationClass of the
MacOSClassPath.txt file to whatever I typed in there.
For example, my Application class is in a package called
com.clickspace.driveit.diadmin, so I put
com.clickspace.driveit.diadmin.Application in the Principle Class field and
then I did an Install build of my application using the WOLips Install
command.
Looking in the MacOSClassPath.txt file of my installed directory, I see the
ApplicationClass is still set as follows:
# ApplicationClass == Application
I guess the Principle Class isn't used for this.
So, what would be used to automatically set the ApplicationClass of the
MacOSClassPath.txt file (and the UNIXClassPath.txt file too as we also
deploy to Solaris) at install time?
Thanks,
