Hello Andri,
I was really missing the WOBuilder in the first time too, mainly for the
feature of copying a part of a component strukture including html,
webobjects tags and wod-bindings with simply copy-paste from one place
to the other. And I still miss the layout preview and the html
formatting feature (the one in Eclipse is nearly unusable because it
makes linebreaks after simple tags where there should be none).
But after a while I get comfortable with the Eclipse-WODEditor too
especially because of the autocompletion and validation. The validation
is really helpful to cleanup the wod files and to avoid runtime errors!
And I was forced to use meaningful webobjcts tag names to understand the
html-file ;-)
Only sometimes I still use the old WOBuilder to understand a html
structure as we use complicated tables for layout purpose. Because we
have old applications to support I have a double installation of WO 5.2
and WO 5.4 here, so the old WOBuilder is still at hand ;-) As the tool
can be used without the rest of the antiquated IDE that is no problem.
Just my 2cents,
Susanne
