I thought the WOLips effort was primarily due to Apple's horrible support of non-OS X WebObjects development?
Believe it or not, EOF used to be a separate product and then eventually got bundled into WebObjects. I still have EOF CDs at home (for NeXTstep -- EOF predated WO). I am primarily wanting an EOF (or Cayenne ROP) that can be used within Cocoa applications. Yeah, Apple has CoreData, but it isn't the same (can't connect to a real DB). Maybe it is wishful thinking on my part, but I'm hoping if OS X can keep gaining market share, there will be more options to do Cocoa work and if it needs to hit a database, it sure would be nice to have a good ORM framework for that access. /dev/mrg -----Original Message----- From: Andrus Adamchik [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 27, 2006 10:55 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Alternative ROP?

But then this may be just what people want :-) Andrus
