Converting Old Projects
Under version 3.5 of WebObjects, projects are organized differently than
under previous versions. This section describes how to convert your old
projects to the new organization so that you can work with them in
WebObjects 3.5 and beyond.
If your existing project is already a WebObjectsApplication project (that is,
it was created by Project Builder and has a
PB.project
file), you can use Project
Builder to convert your project. If your project does not have a
PB.project
file,
you must create a new project and add your existing files to the appropriate
suitcases.
In version 3.5, the
.woa
extension is reserved for the application wrapper.
Previously, the project directory itself had the
.woa
extension. Before
converting your project, you should rename its folder to remove the
.woa
extension.
Select “Install.”
