Did you develop Win32 apps in the past? If using run-time packages, would you expect the newer (say, D7) distributable BPLs to be all that was needed to run apps built with D3 - D6?


Of course I did.

AFAIK, any executable built with VC++ that uses the platform (I mean the Win32API, no 3rd party libraries/components) that run on Windows 95 could run on Windows98, Windows 2000, etc.. because the platform (Win32) is backward compatible..

Note that I'm talking about platforms.. VCL is not a platform, is a framework built on a platform (Win32 or .Net)

If I develop an app using "pure" .Net 1.1 (no 3rd party libararies/componets) I would expect to run in platforms 2.0, 3.0, etc..
as I can do with Win32.. but this is not the case..

Why? because there are some classes in .Net 2.0 that, despite of having the same name and syntax than their respective class in .Net 1.1, behave different and produce different results!!
