the same decision point.
Firebird on Linux is magic, and accessing it via Apache/PHP
works fine. The question I am stuck at is "Is Kylix going
anywhere?"
Putting all the nice IBO graphical stuff over will be a lot
of work, and if Kylix does not 'evolve' then it is a waste
of effort, so I am actually looking at Qt and KDevelop
rather than Kylix. It's not directly compatible with
Windows, but at least it uses the latest libraries and works
with the latest distributions.
Anybody else in the same dilemma?
