I’ve blogged about Virtual Machines before, but they are so useful with a multi-platform development tool such as Xojo that they are worth mentioning again. Read on to learn more about Virtual Machines, how to use them and your options when choosing one.
Comments closedSince we make a popular cross-platform development tool, I’m often asked “what type of computer should I get for cross-platform development”?
You might think that can be a tricky question to answer because they are so many different types of computers. But there is only one computer that can run the three major operating systems without violating a EULA: a Mac.
Comments closedIn this episode of XojoTalk, Paul talks with Craig Boyd, Xojo developer and Data Architect. Craig also writes the database column for xDev Magazine.
Comments closedJust about everyone I know uses mainly one OS, for me, that’s OS X. But because Xojo is a cross-platform development tool, I also use Windows and Linux. When Windows 10 was announced, I was curious as to how well it would work for me as a causal Windows user.
Comments closedWindows 10 is here, for some of you anyway. Yesterday (July 29th, 2015) marked the start of the roll out of Windows 10. If you reserved your copy using the prompt from your Windows 7 or Window 8 installation then you should soon have the option to download and install Windows 10, if you have not already.
Comments closedAlthough not a new trend in software development, rapid application development (
RAD for short) is again on the upswing. What is RAD? It’s all about creating software quickly. The technology world is
always changing rapidly and change only seems to accelerate. Being able to create your own software and easily adapt to changes is incredibly important to nearly every business.
Thanks to some assistance from William Yu and the folks at combit, we now have a sample project that shows you how to use List & Label with Xojo. List & Label is a Windows (.NET-based) reporting tool that can create some sophisticated reports.
Comments closedOperator_Lookup and ParamArray are two language features that have been in Xojo for a while now, but most probably don’t know why they were originally added. The need grew out from having to support COM on Windows.
Xojo 2015 Release 2 has a couple changes to how your Windows apps are built.
