Hi

I’d like knowing if is possible running an Oxygene project on Linux

And, about migrating the project from .Net Framework to Net core, Is there any documentation about this?

Even after that, Is possible using the project as multiplatform?

Thx

Hello Gregorio,

For the first two questions, I will let other people answer, as I’ve never tried.

The answer depends on what kind of application it is. If it is Windows Form or WPF, No!

For other projects, it also depends on which external libraries you use, are they multi-platform?

No isn’t. It built under .Net Framework and actually run just on Windows.

We haven’t migrated to .Net Core yet.

That is my question reason…

Thx.

My question was about third-party libraries you use.

And the first question: which kind of application?

Is a server app, it contains: APIs, Middlewares, Services to consume third-party APIs and comunicate with our main system generating documents.

I don’t know all library names, but are related to JSON, XML, FTP, PDF and Cryptography in .Net Framework

Thx

As far as I know, there is no tool for migrating an Oxygene solution from .NET Framework to .NET Core. And I never do this (I’ve rewritten the application using C#).

Take a look at Get started with incremental ASP.NET to ASP.NET Core migration | Microsoft Learn, this will perhaps help you.

Hi

But continue using Oxygene and woking on Linux, Is there a way?

Or just rewriting whole the application?

Thx

Hi Gregorio,

I will say it depends on the size of the application, the time you have to migrate, and the enrgy you want to put in it.

Perhaps recreating the top application class and copy the source code for the other parts will work. I can’t help more without access to the source code.
