Upgrade 3.26 to 4.22 |
Sat, Mar 25 2006 12:19 PM | Permanent Link |
"JohnE" | I have the daunting task of moving all of my applications, which is approx
30 or so, to Delphi 2006 and DBISAM 4.22. I currently use D7 Pro and DBISAM 3.26 in local and C/S modes. This seems like a humongous undertaking. Is there an easy path? Can older 3.26 apps that are near retirement connect to a 4.22 server? I have a few older ISAPI.DLL (Intraweb 6.23) apps that I use to just read info and display in browser etc.. I don't want to upgrade Intraweb to D2006.. Any tips to help encourage me would be welcomed TIA, -- John |

The connecting stuff maybe needs some rework, 15 minutes or so. Then look for MEMORY in SQL statements and ' or " in SQL and Filters. That's more or less all. With some experience, you can switch an application from 3 to 4 in hours. > Can older 3.26 apps that are near retirement > connect to a 4.22 server?

I do most of my work with Delphi 5. Ralf |

Haha.. well, I bought D2006 Enterprise. I also do work with .Net and Asp.net in particular, so it'd be nice to consolidate my environment. I downloaded Vmware today, maybe give that a shot. John |

Well, if you don't want to develop your older ISAPI modules with D2006, then the only solution I can offer i´s: "Don't do that" Ralf |

"Al Vas" | Any experience with handlng ReportBuilder when moving from V3 to V4? I
imagine with the quoting change that potentially ReportBuilder reports could be significantly affected?

3.26 allowed quotedstr (single) around identifiers however 4.x insists on ansiquotedstr ie "E:\Path\MyTable" vs singled. We placed all of our calls in a function to minimize the conversion effort. hth. Donat. |
