[plug] development platform

[wvovil at fundi.com.au]

Hi

I am developing an NT GUI project that interfaces to a server running on an IBM
OS/390 mainframe. I am doing this with Visual Age Java on Linux (Mandrake 7.1).
It will then be ported or deployed to NT and OS/390.

Hi list,
        I need some advice. We are starting a project
that involves a numerical computation engine and a front
end (probably attached to some existing software).

The current deliverable has to be on NT but several of us
would like to develop under Linux (at least the numerical part
if not all of it) and then port to NT. This is all up for grabs at
the moment -- the project leader is concerned about developing
under Linux but could be convinced.

Are there any examples of commercial projects that develop
under Unix but release a final product under NT?

Are there any good sources of arguments for doing this?


                         thanks
                              rob

        Java has certainly revolutionized marketing and litigation.
