Re: [twsocket] Should next ICS version support anything before Delphi XE ?

Ive had almost all versions from 1 to XE2, except 6 and those .net (8?).
Ported all my apps to XE2 and not looking back. Mostly looking forward to
Firemonkey support.

Hi,

I have some old projects on D2006 that get tweaked from time to time. 
Using V6? No major new development.


Anything new is now using XE.

Re: [twsocket] Should next ICS version support anything, before Delphi XE ?

2012-04-01 Thread Markus Humm
Hello,

 And while I'm at it, I use Delphi 7 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine with 
 16gig ram and have no plans at all to use Delphi XE. So count my vote as 
 keeping full support for Delphi 7. I just don't like the look and feel 
 of Delphi XE. I own it, but never use it.

WHat's wrong with the Look and Feel of XE? I guess you already know that
you can have a classic undocked layout by selecting the proper layout
from the combo in the upper right and that there's also some way
(forgott how it works since I'm happy enough with the new layout) to get
back the old component palette, or at least a nearly 100% replacement
which works like the original.

About restricting new versions to newer Delphi versions: I'd be ok with
D2009+ since that's the Unicode break and the start of generics
introduction. I'm not sure about which new language features Francois
thinks which aren't in D2009 already.

Greetings and sorry to be a bit OT

Markus

Hey...

Still maintain some stuff in D2007 with ICS.  All new development in XE2.  

Bug fixes are fine for older D2007, so don't care about new development with
D2007.  However, DESPERATELY want to see a good socket solution for XE2.  :)

I say drop support for old versions of Delphi, but add support for Free
Pascal/Lazarus
Lazarus now has support for windows style messages on all platforms and
there is a similar non blocking package
called Lnet for Lazarus.  Lazarus has come a long way and I have been using
it lately to do real work with.

This is also my case. Old projects are in D7 and newer in D2007. My code 
base, especially libraries and components, is huge and my first and only 
attempt to at unicode conversion went way bad. Will not be trying it 
again too soon.

Hi 

Still on Delphi 7.  My app uses DBISAM v3 from ElevateSoft and Delphi 7 is
the last Delphi supported.  To go to DelphiAnythingNewer I have to go to
DBISAM v4 or ElevateDB - both of these options have substantial work
involved for little visible advantage to the user, so for them moment I'm
doing the user stuff and sticking with D7.  ICS V5 is working well for me.

Thanks

Still using the old good D7.
If you are asking this them I suppose you haven't coded yet any 
significant part of the planned new version?
What changes you have in mind? If you are not going to rewrite what is 
done already, don't see what special, not available yet, features would 
benefit so much of the new Delphi versions language enhancements. Other 
than new, more high level components. The client components really need 
to be more advanced, IMO.
