Where to start?

Hi

Whats the best way to get started with delphi for .NET?

Surely there must be a good tutorial somewhere online as to how to work with
these .aspx pages?

I'm using Turbo Delphi for .NET (2007 I think)

cheers

Ah thanks for those!

It is really quite daunting to try the latest version of Delphi for .NET.
I've been a hardcore D6 man for a few years (and still am for my primary
win32 coding) however I wanted to get into this .aspx stuff using cassini
proxied through apache as I can see some potential for not learning php

Its just mind blowing though when you open up the IDE and find so many
different things - even the package names are different - EG dialogs is now
Borland.VCL.Dialogs.... Its like learning all over again!

Anyway thanks for the help

Be aware that there's two ways to program in Delphi .NET: 1) using VCL for
..NET, and 2) "native" .NET.

Using VCL for .NET allows you to keep your familiar Win32 controls by
wrapping them with .NET controls. You might have more or less options and
there will be some twisty head kind-a things you have to do to get dbExpress
going (at least in my experience). The advantage, of course, is that you'll
get a .NET application going more quickly because the learning curve is much
less--and it will take you a long ways to converting your Win32 apps to .NET
if that's a goal.

But if you're getting into this to learn the .NET way, don't use VCL for
..NET, but only pure .NET controls. At least, that's my 2 cents.

i think he gonna make ASP.NET web application with Turbo Delphi.Net, i
never tried any Delphi for .Net yet, but if we gonna make web application,
do we deal with VCL.NET?

Yes thats the plan... yet if I'm brutally honest I couldn't even get the
demos suplpied to work. I'll get the default page, click a link and then it
all crashes.

I gave up and assumed it was just as bad as D2005 for .NET

Actually the Turbos were based on Delphi 2006.

Hint: There is a newsgroup for ASP.NET, which might be the best place to
go in the future.
