Author Delphi 6 on Linux alone or Win2k/Linux dual boot
Rafael Fernando Sperb

2002-10-02, 12:51 pm

I'm currently using Windows 2000 Professional alone in my computer.
I will begin developing software in Delphi 6, which is already
installed. But I want to move to Linux (Slackware). I've used it
before and I want to get rid of Windows permanently.

Is there a way for me to install and use Delphi 6 on Linux and use it
as if I was running it on Windows?
It can't be Kylix, it's got to be Delphi.


Thanks,
Rafael.

Kylix is Delphi ported to Linux.

I know, but then I'd have to use only the CLX library and wouldn't be
able to use VCL. So, as I'll be writing programs for Windows, that
would make my options really limited...

If , for whatever reason, you can't use Kulix, the only thing I can think
of is buying a copy of VMWare.
