Hello all (wolips implementors especially)...
Would it be possible for someone to add an option to WOLips that
would allow /Library/WebObjects/Extensions/*.jar to be available from
the "Add Library..." dialog. i.e., so it's similar to a JRE lib.
It currently shows "WebObjects Frameworks" and "WebObjects Frameworks
old" as options.
Can we have one more option: "WebObjects Runtime".
This would be ideal in that it would allow someone to check out the
project from svn, for example, without additional instructions about
creating a User Lib in their workspace.
