Re: [ldm-users] Windows and LDM replacement

Several solutions come to mind.  You can build the windows version under Cygwin 
using C++.  If you need a GUI interface use QT.  If you must do Java use GCJ 
which can produce native executables.

It seems to me we're jumping to the conclusion that LDM2 is intended only on 
Windows and that it will be Java... If there's a way to have it function on 
Linux & Windows, without being Java, I see no reason anyone would object?

I also think IDV is better under Windows than Solaris or Linux..and I will 
conceed Windows has good points.  However the data ingest is the backbone of 
one's whole operations...and like you say Java is ust not worth it.  Makes more 
sense to me for Unidata to insist on UNIX/Linux only platforms for that portion 
and then as Dan suggested maybe offer some help to those new to UNIX or Linux.  
It's not like an LDM-type only box needs that much attention.  I never touch 
our PDI NOAAport boxes at all.  I would touch my other LDM boxes if they 
weren't doing so many other things.
