Is this a mailing list about LinuxCNC or windows crap?!
Someone asked why there isn't a Linux version of Fusion and I explained
some of the technical reasons why.
I run "stock trading app" written in Java on Linux just fine. It's
obvious the app is mostly focused on Windows. It's very poorly
designed based on what I see in html files, config, and logs because
windows is their development platform but it still runs on Linux. I
see people complaining about windows crashes on it's chat channel many
times. Lost trade is a losing trade.
Java has a lot of overhead and is not a practical language for processor
intensive work such as 3D CAD. There are very good reasons why very few
mainstream PC applications are written in Java. As far as your stock
trading app being buggy, that is down to the software developers, not
the OS.
and Mac have consistent libraries. I can take a binary that was
written for Win2K and run it on Win10. Conversely I can build a
program in Win10 that will run on Win2K (within certain limits).
Linux keeps changing and binary compatibility is lousy. If I build an
application on a current
Extreme bull!
No. Fact. If you don't believe me download a copy of SheetCam TNG from
my website. The copies on the site were built a few months ago on Win10.
They will run just fine on Win2K. Yes, I do test compatibility with
operating systems this old. Download the very old version of SheetCam
Standard I keep to support old users (built on XP if I remember
correctly) and it will still run on Win10.
version of Linux it won't run on a distro that is even a few years
older. An app built on Ubuntu probably won't work properly on Fedora.
There are tricks to mitigate these issues but they all involve lots
of work and don't provide a reliable solution.
Unbelievable what speculations I have to read these days.
Again not speculation. I've invested hundreds of hours working on this
and testing different solutions. Can you show me any proof that I am wrong?
