Multi-platform stand-alone application
Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2007 11:10 pm
Hello everyone, I just got this new project at my job and I wanted to know if you could give me some advice on how to go about it.
This project is an application that will use databases, but they want it to be multi-platform, and that it doesn't require an internet (or LAN) connection, since they want to use this application on a local computer.
I don't know if there is like an embeded database(mysql) to use it locally as a file without having to run mysql server on the local computer. I also don't know if I should use Netbeans or .NET since I don't think there is a way to have php running as a stand alone application without the web server to interpret the scripts, or if you know a way I would really appreciate it if you tell me how, since I'd rather use PHP than any of the other options mentioned before, since its been a while since I used .NET and I've never used Netbeans.
I'd really appreciate any help regarding this issue.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Emmbec
