Windows client version comparision 6.2 , 7.2 and 7.5 Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

hello,

Looks like this is best place to discuss SLX issues. I am looking for some basic info about Windows client new features and technical enhancements.

We are looking a upgrade from a SLX 6.2.4 envr. We have 100+ users all on Window client, no remote users. Lot of custom plugin and data scrubbing needs.

Among other things I would appreciate answer to these questions.
1. How is the support for Legacy forms?
2. How useful is .NET Extensions for future customizations?
3. Any features not supported in new version?
4. How stable is 7.5 in comparison to 7.2?

Thanks for taking time,
-R

Each version of SLX has a launch bulletin describing the new features. There are also known issues/fixed issue lists that are published.

Here are some brief answers to your specific questions:
1 By and large, legacy forms should continue to work without changes needed. There are a few exceptions, but by and large all legacy components still work. This will change in 8.0.
2 Depends on what you want to do with them. They are useful in that you can build something in VS and then embedd said things into the SLX DB where they automatically get distributed to remotes and such when needed. As to what you might use them for is another question.
3 Core SLX stuff, not really. If you have some third party solution it may not work but if it was working in 6.2.4 it will probably work in 7.5.
4 Honestly, 7.5 and 7.2 LAN are really close. 7.5 really focused on web rather than changes to the LAN. There are some fixes but overall I would say they are comparable.
