Projects

GNUstep

The purpose of this project is to provide a Free Software version of the Cocoa/OpenStep APIs available on as many platforms as possible. GNUstep seeks to be source code compatible with Cocoa and OpenStep. GNUstep currently supports GNU/Linux, NetBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Solaris, Darwin and Windows and ... [More] should be capable of being built and used on any POSIX compliant UNIX platform which has gcc and/or (soon) LLVM/Clang. GNUstep provides a robust implementation of the AppKit and Foundation libraries as well as the development tools available on Cocoa/OpenStep, including Gorm (the InterfaceBuilder) and ProjectCenter (ProjectBuilder/Xcode).

Wonder

Project WONDER (WebObjects Nodes for Distributing E-Resources) is an umbrella project for the WebObjects community. Initially seeded with NetStruxr's ER frameworks, it welcomes other frameworks, utilities..

Go

Go (GETobjects) is an implementation of the SOPE server and concepts in Java 1.5. It provides (yet another) templating engine modelled after the WO one, as well as database access libraries and other features. Go applications can be deployed into a Servlet container or run standalone using the Jetty HTTP server.

marketplace

Marketplace was developed at the University of Michigan in 2001 and has provided a continuous service to the campus community since then. It offers a place to tell people that you either have stuff you want to get rid of, or stuff you want to acquire. Adverts are divided into many categories for ... [More] easy searching. At the time of adding this project to Google Code the application's authentication relies on a University of Michigan service and so is not portable. However, that aspect of the application could be changed without impacting the function of the rest of it. Copyright © 2001-2008 Regents of The University of Michigan. All Rights Reserved.

houdah-webobjects-frameworks

The frameworks make up a new major open source project to extend Apple's WebObjects application server. Granted the Houdah Frameworks can't compete in size with Project WONDER. Yet I am proud of what I achieved and believe I provide a viable alternative. Most importantly though, you ... [More] don't have to view Houdah Frameworks as competition to existing architecture like D2W or WONDER. You may view the Houdah Frameworks as a repository of utilities and useful code snippet which work with all WebObjects applications. Actually some of the code has been available for download on my personal web site for quite some time now. The custom qualifiers (InSubqueryQualifier, InSubSetQualifier, ...) have proven to be popular. You are bound to find many like code nuggets in the low level frameworks: HoudahFoundation, HoudahEOControl, HoudahEOAccess or HoudahAppServer. Of course, there is much more to the Houdah Frameworks. Like the rule based validation system which will, of course, work with just about any WebObjects application. Or the rule engine, ... . The real strength of the Houdah Frameworks is the web component architecture which builds up to a rule based CRUD framework. HoudahAgileComponents are meant as a modern alternative to D2W. The framework produces perfectly clean HTML which is to be "skinned" at the application level by CSS sheets. HoudahAgileComponents is very flexible and allows for easy customization and extension through both rules and code. The architecture builds upon HoudahViewComponents which provides the view layer. This layer provides large grain view components build from fine grained cells. The view layer could work with any control or persistence layer. The HoudahControlComponents implements a control layer focused on creating CRUD applications using EOF. The control components could be used as is: one would have to subclass an abstract controller for each "page" of the application. HoudahAgileComponents extends the control components by concrete subclasses which call into a rule system. This makes Houdah Frameworks a powerhouse for both rapid prototyping as well as production applications. That said, Houdah Frameworks are intended for use on in-house CRUD systems. If you were to create a public web site, you would need to work on optimization. All throughout Houdah Frameworks MVC principles are taken to the extreme. Of course the EOControl layer does not depend on the EOAccess layer, the view layer does not depend on EOF and the control layer joins them. BTW, I am pretty proud of the rule engine. It is based upon the same ideas as Apple's engine and retains file format compatibility. It has the distinct advantage of depending only on the Foundation and EOControl layers. It may thus be used in code that's unrelated to the WebObjects presentation layer. I also believe that the caching algorithm is much superior to Apple's. The bad news: What's missing is a sample application. I am still (slowly) working on that. Documentation can always use improvement. That's what the Google Code wiki is for. I plan to publish how-tos and documentation as time permits. I also hope for others to chime in on the wiki. [Less]

woext-ajax

This is a small WebObjects framework that allows developers to easily integrate AJAX with WebObjects component actions. It is small, simple and independent. Its goal is to inspire others and to compare notes with similar frameworks meant to integrate AJAX with WebObjects component actions. It is ... [More] written so that it can easily be adapted to any javascript AJAX library. For example, jquery, prototype or ext, etc. [Less]

wogroovy

WOGroovy is a framework for Apple WebObjects that provides support for writing components or full applications using the groovy language. Many of the utility functions and base class functionality provided in WebObjects and Project Wonder are made available through the standard groovy syntax or by method injection into the base classes.

sope-appserver

The SOPE package is an extensive set of frameworks (16 frameworks, ~1500 classes) which form a complete Web application server environment. Besides the Apple WebObjects compatible appserver extended with Zope concepts, it contains a large set of reusable classes: XML processing (SAX, DOM, XML-RPC) ... [More] , MIME/IMAP4 processing, LDAP connectivity, RDBMS connectivity, and iCalendar parsing. The parts of the package can be used stand-alone (e.g. in Cocoa applications) and do not require the appserver parts. For MacOSX developers, the package includes SOPE:X, which contains special Xcode and Cocoa support for SOPE. [Less]

wolf-rs

Welcomewolf-rs is meant to be a lightweight framework for creating RESTful web services. Quick startTo get started, follow these steps: Subclass RestfulHandler. Register your handler using RestfulRegistry (hopefully in your WOApplication subclass). Create links to your resources using RestfulHyperlink where needed.

tacow

tacow - pronounced 'taco' and always spelled in lower-case - is the first international chapter of Cocoaheads, a network of Mac OS X developer groups. Our goal is to foster a community of Apple technology developers. We wanted a venue to give and receive presentations and share war ... [More] stories, interesting tech notes, hacks, and general geek stuff, without having to wait for WWDC. Here on Google Code, we'll be posting sample projects from presentations at tacow meetings, plus any other useful stuff we come across. [Less]
