thanks Dov

Where does OurApplication.jar go? The XCode build puts it in lib. The WOLips build puts it somewhere else as OurApplication.woa.

I personally have had more success building all the frameworks as jars and putting them in lib, like the XCode build.

We have been deploying our apps as servlets for the past 2+ years. We started using the SSDD target but found it lacking. The biggest hassle we found was the SSDD didn’t seem to include everything we needed. One of the only limitations I have come across is that the resulting WAR file can be run without having the container expand it first (which is the default behavior for Tomcat but not WebLogic – see below for the reason). Our apps get built using the following steps:

Build the frameworks using <wocompile> and <woframework>
Build the applications using <wocompile> and <woapplication>
Assemble the web applications manually instead of using the supplied SSDD target. Our final deployment includes the following structure:
           WEB-INF
                classes
                Library
                    Frameworks
                        OurFoundation.framework
                        OurModel.framework
                        OurServices.framework
                        JavaEOAccess.framework
                        JavaEOControl.framework
                        JavaFoundation.framework
                        JavaJDBCAdaptor.framework
                        JavaWebObjects.framework
                        JavaWebServicesClient.framework (if needed)
                        JavaWebServicesSupport.framework (if needed)
                        JavaWOExtensions.framework (if needed)
                        JavaWOJSPServlet.framework
                        JavaXML.framework
                lib
<any non WO jars needed – JDBC Drivers, XML parsers, mail.jar, etc> web.xml (Need to make sure that the WOClasspath context parameter includes all of the WO frameworks listed above plus your application frameworks. There is an environment variable WEBINFROOT that gets resolved at runtime to the path where the WEB- INF folder is located. This is the primary reason that the WAR file must be expanded in order to run properly.

4. After the web app is assembled it is WARed using the ant <jar> task.

Hope this helps others.
