Delphi Tage 2014 on Saturday

On Saturday I'll give the keynote at the Delphi Tage in Bonn, Germany

On Saturday, September 6th, I'll give the keynote at the Delphi Tage in Bonn, Germany. Even if the description is a bit generic, I'll talk about XE7 and product directions.

For information about the event (in German) see www.delphitage.de . While there are a few sessions in English, most of the content and attendees are part of the 3 German user groups, who organize the event with the help of Embarcadero's German office.

While I won't give technical sessions, others from Embarcadero will to that, including Matthias and Dmitry.There are several MVP and many other Delphi experts giving session, I'm pretty sure there will be plenty of technical content during the day. If you are attending, feel free to stop by and ask any Delphi question, technical or not. I'll be in sessions or wandering around.... and I'll also join the "community abend" looking for a good beer.

Datasnap Server\Client Backward Compatibility

Hello Marco,

Sorry for asking a question in the comment section 
of your blog, I tried to subscribe to the 
Newsgroups, but your subscription server is down.

I have been tasked to develop a mobile client for 
an application server that has been developed using 
Delphi 7 and the Datasnap technology of Delphi 7, 
so my question is whether I would be able to use 
Delphi XE7 for the mobile client but connect to a 
Datasnap server that has been developed using 
Delphi 7. The application server uses the Socket 
Server protocol for client connections.

Thank you very much

Delphi Tage 2014 on Saturday

Firas,
  what about writing me an email at my "firstname.lastname" using 
the account @embarcadero,com?

In any case, this might be technical possible, as we support socket 
connectivity to DataSnap, but:

+ socket connections from mobile are really discouraged, you 
should rather use HTTP
+ differences in string encoding might cause you issues
+ subtle incompatibilities moving off 10 years of a product are 
expected

Why not move the DataSnap server to XE7 as well?
