Apple has released WebObjects 5.2, an update to its enterprise application for developing and deploying business applications on the Web. WebObjects gives users the ability to build or use standards-based web services without writing low-level SOAP, XML or WSDL. Tools enable code-free generation, configuration and testing of web services from existing data assets. These standards-based web services can interoperate with clients written in many languages, including Java, AppleScript, Perl and .Net, opening up enterprise development to a new class of programmers.
