Can Delphi output Java byte code? |
No. Use JBuilder
for Java development.
|
Are the ADO components in Delphi compatible with Microsoft's Jet engine 4? |
Yes.
|
Can I use components written in an earlier version of Delphi than the one I have? |
Yes, though Delphi components from previous versions must be recompiled from source
code in Delphi 5. This is true for all 32bit versions of Delphi.
|
What is TeamSource? |
TeamSource
is a workflow management tool for helping application development teams
manage their daily tasks in a shared development environment. TeamSource
uses a version control system, such as PVCS, for storing and retrieving
shared files, but goes beyond simple version control to manage and coordinate
the process of using a parallel model of source control.
|
Does PVCS work with Delphi? |
Yes, but PVCS does not ship with Delphi.
|
What is the Integrated Translation Environment? |
The Integrated
Translation Environment (ITE) is a suite of tools that facilitates software
localization and simultaneous development of applications for different
locales. Because of its integration with the Delphi IDE, the ITE lets you
manage multiple localized versions of an application as part of a single
Delphi project group. The ITE ships with the Enterprise and higher editions
of Delphi.
|
Can I add the Integrated Translation Environment to my Professional or Standard version? |
No. You will need to upgrade to the Enterprise or Architect version to get the ITE.
|
What are some of the differences between Delphi Standard/Professional/Enterprise/Architect? |
See http://www.borland.com/delphi/index.html
|
Can I still take advantage of all the new language and compiler features if I only have the standard version? |
Yes, the core
compiler is the same throughout the different versions of Delphi being
offered (e.g. Standard, Professional, Enterprise, etc.)
|
Is there a Translation Suite for Delphi? |
Yes, Delphi Enterprise now ships with
Borland Translation Suite.
|
Can I develop Windows CE applications with Delphi? |
No.
|
Can I take advantage of the new data types MS SQL Server 7 offers? |
No, not with the SQL Links driver. Microsoft no
longer supports DB-LIB with the release of MS SQL Server 7 which means
that DB-LIB doesn't have support for the 4 new data types that SQL 7 offers
- namely NTEXT, NCHAR, NVARCHAR and GUID. In order to successfully use
new types offered by SQL Server 7 and above you'll need to use CT-LIB, or
use dbGo.
|
What vendors/versions of ODBC drivers have Delphi and the BDE been tested with? |
Please see the list in the BDE readme.txt or online at
