Hi Pavel and others, Delphi 2005 IS capable of building cross platform .NET applications, however, it doesn't help you much. There one crucial point to remember:
NEVER use the VCL (Delphi's component library), and try to keep of most of the RTL too. For an example, see the Indy project (see www.indyproject.org). It runs fully on .NET FCL (without VCL) and Mono. However, due to a low FCL user base, there are still some unknown bugs, probably.
