(at least if used MDI) Currently, I'm a D6 user. I did not upgrade to D7, but I'm planning to upgrade to D8. I haven't written Delphi MDI applications for several years, but I have a MDI application that I would like to improve. I want to do this with D8 and explore the possiblity of porting the application to dotNet. Will this be possible (i.e., painless) with D8? kjh Back to top mamcx Guest Posted: Tue Sep 30, 2003 6:50 pm    Post subject: Re: Octane news from Entwickler SDI is consider now the standar layout, so is abandon more in broad terms. I always build MDI program and i don't found nothing in D7 that stop me to do a MDI program Back to top Ken Halliwell Guest Posted: Tue Sep 30, 2003 6:54 pm    Post subject: Re: Octane news from Entwickler After revisiting my old MDI application, I was surprised at how much time had past since it's last version. It was developed with D3. Considering the negative vibes I'm getting about Delphi's current and future support of MDI applications. It looks like I'll be converting it to SDI. Sigh... kjh Back to top Anders Ohlsson (Borland) Guest Posted: Tue Sep 30, 2003 11:19 pm    Post subject: Re: Octane news from Entwickler Quote: BUT with D7 you'd have to abandon your past.

Like years ago? IIRC, it is strongly discouraged, although ISTR that some new MS products use MDI. I could be wrong, though. -- Dave Nottage (TeamB) Back to top Chris Burrows Guest Posted: Wed Oct 01, 2003 1:00 am    Post subject: Re: Octane news from Entwickler "Anders Ohlsson (Borland)" <aohlsson (AT) borland (DOT) com> wrote Quote: BUT with D7 you'd have to abandon your past.

Not at all - MDI is still supported in the .NET Framework: http://tinyurl.com/p97h or expanded: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vbcon/html/vbconmdiapplications.asp Chris Burrows CFB Software http://www.cfbsoftware.com Back to top Ingvar Nilsen Guest Posted: Wed Oct 01, 2003 1:34 am    Post subject: Re: Octane news from Entwickler Anders Ohlsson (Borland) wrote: Quote: BUT with D7 you'd have to abandon your past.

MDI is a GUI technique that in the beginning looked very promising but turned out not to be as versatile as once believed. That doesn't mean it can't serve some purposes, and in fact do it well in certain applications, it just has to be done right. The assumption that D7 doesn't support MDI has to be wrong, of course. -- Ingvar Nilsen Back to top Arthur Hoornweg Guest Posted: Wed Oct 01, 2003 6:47 am    Post subject: Re: Octane news from Entwickler Anders Ohlsson (Borland) wrote: Quote: (NGs finally back up - apologies if you've seen this already) So the news server is fixed now? -- Arthur Hoornweg (please remove the ".net" from my e-mail address) Back to top Cruxy Guest Posted: Wed Oct 01, 2003 7:37 am    Post subject: Re: Octane news from Entwickler Anders Ohlsson (Borland) wrote: Quote: What specifically doesn't work with regards to MDI in D7? MDI + TActionMainMenuBar Quote: Also, I could be wrong, but isn't MDI dropped by MS? Like years ago? If I have to totally re-program a already done application, to give my customers what they want (new look & feel) that's a problem. (And thats one point why we (the company I work at) only bought one D7 license (mine) and all other people are still working on D5 waiting for a better D7 or D8) And MS is still compatible with MDI! (It's not marked as obsolete in MSDN July'03) AND it's also available in C#.
