Again, only the IDE uses the .NET 2.0 SDK, not your programs and not the rest of your computer.

Don’t use the model view in the project window and diagrams will not be generated. If accidentally click on the model view you will be asked if you want to create them, just click no.

Unfortunately .NET increase the Windows Vulnerability while browsing on the Web. I’ve figured this last year when I was infected by the spamNetA virus after installing the .NET Framework.

Theoretically there is no problem with .NET but when I look on NSA site I figured out that securing .NET is not a trivial problem.

So before Delphi using .NET the production has an cost factor of 1 after the .NET introduction we obtain a cost factor about of 2 also affecte by the required .NET management of the Enterprise level.

Meanwhile I thik that following the .NET in this exclusive maner is too dangerous for Delphi due to lost of it’s own personalitty which was better than the Micorsoft proposals.

An Express Delphi IDE for WIN32/WIN64 and totally independent of .NET will be more suitable for people who literally fears the .NET problems.

Thank you and best regards,

Mike

Completly agree with you. Every developer has different needs. I have listed my needs.

And really: Can I turn off diagram view ? and generation of ddp files ?

You don’t have to use UML, it is not forced on you. There are probably other parts of the product that some developers won’t care about as well.

You have to install Windows on your machine, and install some drivers, and some other DLLs, COM objects, and stuff too.

The main point for Delphi 2007 for Win32 is that you build native Win32 applications and deploy them without any need of .NET.

2 - Very cool.

3 - Don’t care. UML sucks. Can I turn off UML diagrams?

4 - Somewhat usefull.
