Quote: I'm thinking of using Intraweb to develop web interfaces for a couple of my applications. I'm a BCBv5 user (about to upgrade to BCB2006) and wondered if anyone could recommend Intraweb, or point out any of it's weak points. I can recommend Intraweb. It's the fastest/easiest way for a Delphi/BCB user to build web applications. If you're a web newbie, have experience in the RAD Win32 world and need to get something on the web, there's no better framework. Even if you're an experienced web developer, Intraweb is a nice framework but IMO its sweet spot is for Delphi/BCB guys wanting to build web applications. The main downside IMO, is that there is a much, much smaller third-party marketplace for UI components compared to an alternative like ASP.NET. You can always roll your own stuff in HTML/JS, however, a major reason for a component based framework IMO is to remove the developer from that drudgery. The other differences may be seen as a good thing or a bad thing depending on what you're doing. For example, Intraweb easily deploys in a "standalone" fashion: one exe, webserver integrated (it can also do ISAPI and .NET if you're doing .NET work). You don't need IIS or Apache. So if you're deploying an intranet application or you have a co-lo, this isn't a problem and in some cases even better. However if you're buying internet hosting, it's much easier to deploy an ASP.NET application. That said, Intraweb for .NET is a viable product for ..NET deployment, however it still cannot utilize ASP.NET components (at this time). -- Brian Moelk [email]bmoelk (AT) NObrainSPAMendeavorHERE (DOT) com[/email] http://www.brainendeavor.com Back to top David Perkins Guest Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2005 12:06 pm    Post subject: Would anyone recommend Intraweb?

Faced with a requirement for a local web server app that would allow users to view the collated status of several monitoring apps from their desktop PC's, I promised to provide a web page to demonstrate the 'look' of the proposed app after a couple weeks, so as to allow the customer to suggest changes. Using Intraweb, I was able to demonstrate, instead of merely a page template, a complete, working server after the two weeks. In one job, IW returned its investment twice over.

I have had an awful experience with this product (support and usage wise). I do not wish to start a flame war, but I think it would be beneficial for you to look at alternatives as well. If you're only wanting a Delphi tool, look at Kim Madsen's stuff. I know there are more too. CGIExpert is an option if you want ISAPI, but it does not seem like it is maintained anymore.

Want to add my own experience with Intraweb has been fantastic - great support, constant updates (fastest I know of to get compatible with latest browsers) and very PROFITABLE for a web programmer... -- JoeH [ write a letter, save a life - http://www.amnesty.org ] [make a donation, save a village - http://www.worldvision.org] Back to top Falanga Alain Guest Posted: Tue Dec 20, 2005 9:42 am    Post subject: Re: Would anyone recommend Intraweb?

That I found interessting with Intraweb is the way that he was done, you can be a very high end user or a low level programmer, you can access to every all aspect of the product. HTML production at fly enable fantastic thinks ! My opinion : A Must in my opinion.
