What should I worry about if I move to Delphi 2007 to 2010?
I’ve checked this article and there was a lot of interesting stuff but not precisely for this jump that I need.
To clarify my question and situation:
- I have all 3td party components’ code.
- I will need the unicode, but not this year.
- I need win 7 support – themes, form resize problems and etc.
- I will be happy to have a decent help system.
- Is ADO (dbGO) improved?
- What headache to expect?
Thanks!
Sorry for you, the help content of Delphi2010 is better than Delphi2007, but far away from Delphi7.
There are many resources about unicode migration, and it is very easy to find.
I will just insist on 3rd party libs which is the difficult part.
You have the source code, good, but considering fixing unicode relates issue inside these components is very ambitious !
My advice: Check the compatibility of your 3rd party libs, check your code compatibility – fix all warnings, follow this good white paper from CodeGear : Delphi and Unicode
