Any plans.. Kylix / .Net

rbuser

Hello

Have you any plans that you can discuss regarding a report designer (like
RBEnt) for Kylix and/or C# edition for .Net?

Thank you

Hi

I know there are other posts regarding Kylix, but most seem from some while
ago and I'd like to understand the current thinking / plans at DM, if
possible

Thanks

Clive

Though we see great potential in the Linux theater, we must make our
decisions based on business realities. Therefore, we currently have no plans
to develop a Kylix version. We will certainly make an announcement if this
situation changes.

Also, at this time, we haven't anounced any plans regarding .NET.

Well, it is different from my business reality. We cannot get more clients who are
running their system in the strictly Linux environment. If there are no plans for
Kylix, we may drop ReportBuilder and switch over to Rave or other Kylix/Windows
compatible Report generators. ReportBuilder is a great product and we have dropped
Rave Reports when we used ReportBuilder. We wanted to maintain a common code-base
for sanity's sake and have minimum cross-platform recoding if possible. When our
clients overseas pushes us far, we will switch over to Rave, even if it is not as
good as ReportBuilder. We are still waiting if Rave becomes good enough for us
before switching over, unless of course ReportBuilder does a Kylix version within
our business time frame. That is our reality.
