Installable HTTP Adaptors

 When WebObjects is installed, the adaptors listed in the table below, when appropriate to the platform, are put in NEXT_ROOT/Library/WebObjects/Adaptors; source code for all adaptors is written to NEXT_ROOT/Developer/Examples/WebObjects/Source/WOAdaptors. Note that only the CGI and Apache adaptors can be found on Mac OS X Server, since neither Netscape's nor Microsoft's servers have been ported to this platform. Also, no ISAPI binary file is written to Solaris or HP-UX platforms (only source code).

The following table summarizes the adaptors provided with WebObjects.
Server /Library/WebObjects/ Location Executable
CGI many Adaptors/CGI WebObjects[.exe]
NSAPI Netscape 3.51 FastTrack (httpd) Enterprise (https) Adaptors/NSAPI WebObjects-NSAPI.dll or WebObjects-NSAPI.so
