Hi all,

 

Am faced with a strategic decision at present.  We are getting bigger and need to move off the VB and MapBasic path that I have been happy in for a long time.

 

We are about to develop some server based applications with thick or thin clients.  These won’t necessarily be spatial apps. 

 

Two options present themselves to me, VB.NET or Java.

We have one programmer who is doing good things in VB.NET on desktops and WINCE devices, and two are trained  in Java, but not experienced.

 

I have a desire to put some stuff onto linux servers, but this is not an essential path (as it would make the decision for me).

 

I haven’t been impressed with the success of .NET projects that I have observed, but maybe that has changed.

 

Would appreciate comments, traps to avoid with either path, strengths of either.

 

TIA

R
