That's kind of a broad subject. As a seasoned C++/Java
developer, maybe I could answer a little more
specifically if I knew what sort of portability you meant.
Do .NET apps port well within the Windows OS? Well, as
long as you have Win 98 or above, the short answer is
yes. However, if users don't keep up to date on service
packs.......... a different story.
I have Mono loaded and it ROCKS. But there are
limitatinos, most of which are work in process. Does it
port to Berkeley Unix? No. Mac? Nope. Solaris (yes, I
know this is redundant)..no.
Will it port well..........YES. If you look at what's
been accomplished by Mono, then you'd have to acknowledge
the possibilities.
I currently use MySQL, Oracle 9.0 and SQL Server 2000 for
a distributed app. XML datasets via serialization and
deserialization facilitates this, and yes, we have
roughly 25K plus requests on any given DB daily, and our
exceptions are not worth mentioning they are so rare.
If you want more specifics, let me know...
Cheers,
Bill
