Ada, As long as your app is platform agnostic (i.e, not using JNI to call platform specific code etc), then you should have no problem moving to non OS X for deployment. In fact after the demise of the Xserve, many folks in the community shifted their deployment to some form of linux distro. M

Because WebObjects is written in Java, it can pretty much run anywhere you need it to. We almost exclusively deploy our applications on Linux, but there are others who deploy on Windows (we call them crazy though :D). There was a restriction in the license (I don't remember if this ever changed)

WebObjects *is* pure java (there is no magic ‘other’ language or anything). It is a full web publishing stack. If you have a WebObjects application, you are probably talking to a database, if so that uses the entity relational mapping layer of WebObjects called EOF. The display layer of the sta
