[DUG] DBS2006 and .NET 2.0

[Jeremy Coulter]

Thanks Richard.
Well, we are not sure when the product will be delivered. Some things have
changed since I sent my last email, and I am prob. only going to be
developing a webservice for now.
Is there still a software assurence thingy availible, so if I get D6 now, in
6mths I will get the next version of Delphi for nix?....(or however it
works)

Those are good questions!
 
If you want to be on the Highlander beta, you can do .NET 2.0 Delphi
development now. When are you planning on releasing your product? You can
also do C# if you want, as you say, a lot of Delphi developers are learning
C# (as it is pretty easy). 
 
If you specifically want to use .NET 2.0, you only have two options -
Highlander beta and VS.NET 2005. If you are happy to stick with .NET 1.1 for
the short term, then I really recommend using BDS and taking a good look at
ECO. Andy Bell in Auckland is doing both - he does ECO (as he can't drop it,
it makes him too productive) and he uses C# on .NET 2.0 as he likes the
language extensions it provides.

I was thnking of Delphi.NET,  OR am I better to forget about Delphi.NET and
use C#?
The reason I ask is, we are needing to do some new development and I have
FINALLY got a chance to use .NET and move forward technology wise.
We have Vis Studio 2005 and would prefer to use Delphi.Net now, since Delphi
is (1) our language of choice, and (2) use it as a spring board int C# which
mose ex. delphi developers seem to bedoig these days.

You answered your own question. 
 
95% of people who use Delphi use Win32. Why would they use .NET?
 
If you want .NET 2.0 now, then you will need to use VS.NET2005. But many
people, who want .NET, after seeing ECO, are perfectly happy to wait, or
mix.

Ok, so forgive my ignorance here, but why would I get D2006 now, when I can
use .NET 2 in the "Other"' product?  That of course I besides the fact that
I can use the latest Delphi W32 enhancements etc.
