RE: [DUG] More Delphi news...

[Kyley Harris]

I found intraweb to be junkware.   The documentation is sadly lacking for the price charged for the full version.   This review is a year old. J   It had so many bugs its not funny. More often than not. Pressing f5 on the browser would come up with “browser not supported errors” and then press it again would be fine. Like Russian roulette. The session management got corrupted very very easily. The html output was disgusting.   I actually found it much easier to simply learn more about how _javascript_ actually works, and html. And then use a decent html editor (dreamweaver or notepad) to template up all my pages. And the use a simple TWebModule, or Other with action handlers.   It is really quite easy to use a TWebRequest and TWebResponse object with some mailmerge features on html to do most stuff.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeremy Coulter Sent: Thursday, 27 April 2006 4:22 p.m. To: NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi List Subject: RE: [DUG] More Delphi news...    Yeah, I must admit, I am stuggeling to find a need to use .NET, apart from Webservices are quite easy to make, and the ability to make apps. for mobile PC's. BUT, I know its the way forward, so I need to do SOMETHING, prob. some framework 2 training as I did frame work 1.1. and my documentation is slightly different etc. etc.   Just ont he subject of Intraweb, how many of you out there are using it? I quite like it, but have not done a lot of development with it, although I am thinking about it for a thin client solution I need to look.   Jeremy     -----Original Message----- From: "Sean Cross - CRM" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi List" <delphi@ns3.123.co.nz> Date: Thu, 27 Apr 2006 16:02:47 +1200 Subject: RE: [DUG] More Delphi news... I think this comes down to horses for courses. I spent 3 years doing C# and C++ before coming back to delphi.  There are a number of areas where C# is better and and a large number of areas where it is worse. Server side, C# and .net is probably better (althoug I find intraweb easier to use than asp) but for client side apps delphi is far better.  C# has a larger and richer stand library but a much worse visual control set.   The only real advatage of C# for me is garbage collection (which is not a panacea for memory leaks) which is vastly outweighted by it's inability to compile to native code. YMMV.
