Is it possible to work in Delphi on Linux and create W applications? I have an ubunt 11.04, I need to write an application for Windows on Delfnyak. Can anyone have any thoughts as a shell to put?

    Lazarus + FreePascal

    • Yes, I already read about it. It is interesting whether the components of the tool will look modern or square. In addition, whether the creation of an executable? - new_russian_man September
    • Lazarus / Fripascal has such a slogan - it is written once, compiled everywhere. How to build Linux for Windows - wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/… - KoVadim

    Globally, there are three options:

    1. virtual machine with Windows, in it Delphi is native. From virtualok I recommend virtualbox (free), vmware (commercial) and parallels (especially good for mac).
    2. Delphi launch via wine emulator. Support status see here.
    3. use similar Delphi nos. For example, Lazarus

    All those who mentioned any option plus. I tried all the options myself.

    I can add on my own that no one interferes with the presence of a windows-computer with network access, connect to it via the RDP interface and sit remotely on it. And writing programs in Delphi - what difference does it make: are they running locally or via remote desktop !?

      Somewhere I read how the craftsmen put the old versions of the dolphins under Vain and seemed to even work for them.

        He himself put in the year since 2003. Almost with half a kick, 3 Delphi started up under the redhat. - KoVadim

      Oracle Virtualbox will save the world.
      Vine will not save the world, but it may help a little.

      • This is too much to put a virtual machine on the car. - new_russian_man September
      • by no means. I have: Edobovsky Dream under a virtualka works faster than the native son of Eclipse. So it goes. And Windows does not allow to put on a computer the "security policy of the company." And figs with them - knes
      • I have a weak comm to pull two cars. Is it really impossible to write for Windows under Linux? - new_russian_man September

        You can write, you have to compile anyway in win .. Since you are sitting on Linux, just write for it .. - Ivlev Denis

      There is another little-known cross-platform environment similar to Delphi - MseIDE and MseGNU, but with very little Russian literature, it works with the Free Pascal compiler. Installation information can be found at http://freepascal.ru/ . I have not tried to write anything in it yet. Embarcadero recently announced the release of the new Rad Studio XE 2 environment, there you can write for several platforms, but nothing seemed to be said about Linux.
