WOWebLog Build Gotchas

Here are a couple notes:

(1) WOWebLog also requires JAssert.framework, which is in the redshed repository, not the WOWebLog repository.

(2) JAssert won't build straight from CVS. You probably checked everything in with MacCVS Pro, which MacBinary-wrapped the project file inside the JAssert.pbproj wrapper.

(3) WOWebLog expects JAssert to be right alongside all the other projects. If you keep JAssert elsewhere, you need to remove the reference from the WOWebLog project and re-add the framework so Project Builder knows where to find it.

(4) WOWebLog uses woaFrameworkMerger.pl as the last stage in its build process, and expects it to be in ~/Library/.

(5) WOWebLog built fine for me with WebObjects 5.1.4 once I put log4j.jar in /Library/Java/Extensions. I have no idea if it actually works; I haven't tried actually creating a database or running it.
