#Swing #Cocoa: It isn't suprising when you look into it. For #WebObjects #Apple not only reimplemented #Foundation in #Java (com.webobjects.foundation), they also made a #Cocoa abstraction layer that mimics layout and behaviour in #Swing (com.webobjects.eointerface.swing).

That one still works (https://fosstodon.org/@lazarus/114252747377471833), while the bridge to Cocoa has been deprecated with WebObjects 5.4 (and thus is not part of its docs anymore).

Compare https://leopard-adc.pepas.com/documentation/InternetWeb/Reference/WO542Reference/index.html to https://leopard-adc.pepas.com/documentation/WebObjects/Reference/WO53_Reference/.

This client-server database app runs on any desktop operation system having a regular JVM. Crazy stuff, #Apple did, huh? #WebObjects #D2JC

The theme is quite okish on #Mint. #Linux #Java #Swing

Same screenshot again, this time on Linux Mint, showing way more contrast. UI looks usable.

The "Powered By WebObjects" sticker of the app. Just for the sake of it.

"San Antonio Rose" is a #swing #instrumental introduced in late 1938 by #BobWillsAndHisTexasPlayboys. Quickly becoming the band's most #popular number, Wills and band members devised lyrics, which were recorded on April 16, 1940, and released on Okeh 5694 in August as "New #SanAntonioRose". Despite having completed a lengthy #Hillbilly/Folk chart run in 1939, which culminated at #1, it quickly rose to the top again, in early 1941.

A quarter done of the #The100DayProject, today day 25. Prompt for #PastInktober is #swing. I remember my mom used to tell stories about how the swings in her youth were so very tall that you’d go really high. I’ve seen them in folk villages and they are really high #FountainPen #WaterColour #Midori #InkyParker51
