Thank you!

My understanding is that some of the refactoring is .NET code, and Borland has no intention to rewrite it in Win32. So, I'm pretty sure you won't get your wish. Of course, this is just my own opinion.

I don't think this is a reasonable request. That's almost as bad as dictating what development tool should be used for a particular application. Leave the technology decisions up to Borland- they can use whatever dev technology they want. However, there may be a good reason behind your request that just occurred to me: the Delphi install is anything but smooth on Windows x64 editions. If they address these kinds of issues then I don't mind whether they install .NET stuff or not. The important thing is that they allow you an option of what gets loaded (like Jed's DCM) when you run the app. I believe that is in DeXter. That reduces some of the performance impact that the "extra baggage" has. BTW, if your company has a no-.NET-on-dev-machines policy then they'll have to accept the reality pretty soon- and I'd advise you to look for work at another company while they're trying to figure out where things are heading technology-wise. ;-) Cheers, Kevin.

Rewrite? It would be a good "dogfooding" showcase for Borland to demonstrate the excellent multi-platform migration support in Delphi, demonstrating how very easy it should be to port legacy code from .NET to native! <gd&rlh> -- Kristofer Back to top John Wester [Group W] Guest Posted: Fri Jul 29, 2005 2:09 pm    Post subject: Re: Dexter wish In article <42e95fdd$1 (AT) newsgroups (DOT) borland.com>, [email]nospam (AT) thank (DOT) you[/email] says...

Yo, Kristofer! People over at the "other place" are wondering where the heck you've been.
