I can’t help with this, but your other comments…

 

I have been thinking about this too. I think that a fair number of people have moved to .NET (I admit to using C# a lot), but also I think that the people who use Delphi now are pretty much high to guru level, so don’t need much help anymore. The list is relegated to one off questions of an unusual nature.

 

Back in the day Delphi was new and exciting and people were learning what it could do etc, so of course there would be more traffic. I guess it does highlight the fact that there are either – not many new people to Delphi, or not many new people to the list (or both).

 

Thoughts?

Subject: [DUG] migrate app from firebird to informix

 

Hi all in (what is left of) Delphi-land

 

I have been asked to investigate the possibility of migrating my cgi-app from firebird db to Informix Dynamic Server 9.4

 

While I am trawling the net for info, is there anyone out here who has experience of the differences between the two and how they would affect my app?

 

From what I can gather I will need to go to dbExpress.

 I am currently using IBDatabase, IBQuery, and IBTransactions to manipulate my data.  At a quick look it looks like all my Db code will have to be changed.

 

Any further tidbits of info are welcome.  (This could even breath some life into nzDUG list)

 

Have a great day all

 

Tracey
