Layout of Application
in the File System

When you create an application in WebObjects Builder, you're creating a new directory under <DocumentRoot>/WebObjects. All WebObjects applications must be located beneath this directory so that the HTTP server can find them. The application directory is given the extension .woa.

The application directory contains the application's resources. These resources consist mainly of components, which are dynamic HTML pages.

Components are themselves directories, consisting of files that store the HTML, the script, bindings, and any component-specific resources. The component for the first page of the application is usually named Main.wo.
