So far we do not provide a complete SOPE developer manual. Since the
application server itself (NGObjWeb) was written with WebObjects
compatibility in mind, you can reuse most of Apple's documentation on that
topic.
Note that starting with WO 5.0 the Apple server was rewritten from scratch in Java. The WO 4.5.1 version is the last version which is supposed to be
compatible to SOPE.
Also remember that sope-gdl1 is only roughly compatible with the EOF
framework which was provided with WO 2.0 (EOF 1.1). For compatibility with
a recent ObjC/EOF version, check out GDL 2.
