erich.wanker Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Hello, short stupid questions: does it mean - that i can create a similar thing like unigui.dll just for linux? is the result a Shared Objects (*.so) files what i can upload to an linux-webhoster-standard-server? Must i switch to Lazarus? ..actual i use Delphi XE4 in delphi - i user a reportdesigner to produce PDF files - what soultuion can i use in the future? is the performance higher on a linux system (running a shared object <-> running a dll on windows) ? if Quasar is ready to use - is the basic avantage the "cheaper webhosting" ? - or are there other avantages? ThanX for infos Erich 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zemorango Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Erich, thats a lot of good questions... One thing I can say is that Linux server are cheapers than windows servers, but I don't know if apache is faster than IIS. I made some tests comparing IIS vs Apache in a windows machine and IIS was always faster. In Linux I don't know how fast is Apache comparing to a IIS on Windows. I seems to me so far the only advantage is the cheaper webhosting. Does anyone have something else to share about this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgreat Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 does it mean - that i can create a similar thing like unigui.dll just for linux? is the result a Shared Objects (*.so) files what i can upload to an linux-webhoster-standard-server? Usually it is a standalone linux console application, which can be configured to run as a Linux daemon. Not sure if it can be installed as Apache .so library. Never tried it myself as first approach is just easier under Linux. Must i switch to Lazarus? ..actual i use Delphi XE4 No. Delphi only. Versions which have Linux support. in delphi - i user a reportdesigner to produce PDF files - what soultuion can i use in the future? The one which can compile for linux. is the performance higher on a linux system (running a shared object <-> running a dll on windows) ? System perfomance is about the same, but linux compiler for delphi is currently less effective. So your code will generally be slower on Linux. if Quasar is ready to use - is the basic avantage the "cheaper webhosting" ? - or are there other avantages? Linux considered as more stable hosting platform. And sometimes you just can't choose the OS as you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
