Nope!

Post #4,063 by tonytib 8/7/01 1:58:26 PM Reply	Semi possible Delphi 6 includes CLX, so if you don't use stuff specific to a particular OS (e.g. Windows only ActiVex controls) it should be possible to have a common code base with a few (hopefully only a few) differences. I may be needing to write some configuration programs for serial-interfaced devices, and it'd be nice to have the same code base for both Linux and Windows -- and yes, I would want to support both OS's. I think this could be done in Kylix 1.0 and Delphi 6.0, but won't know for sure until I try it. Tony

I've read reports that if you use pretty much just the most basic components, porting from Delphi 5 to Kylix was just a few code corrections. Between Delphi 6 and Kylix, it should be only the names of a few units in the `uses` clause. In both cases, a couple of `ifdef`s per unit file should make your code cross-platform. Christian R.

Post #5,191 by CRConrad 8/14/01 7:36:49 PM Reply	Dunno if they got that from C++... My guess would be, from plain C. (Doesn't that have it too?) Then of course, that'll only have Jay go even more "I thought we'd outgrown that by now"! :-) Christian R. Conrad The Man Who Knows Fucking Everything
