Types of Multi-Device Applications You Can Create
Go Up to Multi-Device Applications Index
The following table lists and describes some notable types of multi-device applications that you can create using the IDE:
Type of Application | How to Create this Application | Description and Links |
---|---|---|
Multi-Device Applications
Target machines:
|
|
Applications created with the Multi-Device Application wizard automatically use the multi-device versions of components and run-time library. You can create a Delphi or C++ multi-device application that can run on all the supported target platforms, with the exception of iOS Simulator, which is only supported by Delphi applications.
For more information, see Developing Multi-Device Applications. |
64-bit Windows Applications, for both Delphi and C++Builder Target machine: PC running 64-bit Windows operating system, either a local PC (the development system) or a remote PC |
To create a 64-bit Windows application in the IDE:
|
The RAD Studio IDE can run on any Windows platform (either native Win32 or Win64):
For more information, see 64-bit Windows Application Development. |
Console Applications Target machines:
|
|
To run, debug, and deploy an OS X or iOS application, you must create a connection profile and install and run the Platform Assistant (the remote application server) on an actively connected Mac. You must add an SDK as well. Console Application Output on the iOS Simulator and Device RAD Studio supports iOS console applications in conjunction with Xcode. If console output is used (for example, if the console application uses Writeln), the output does not display on either the iOS Simulator or the iOS Device window. Instead, the output is sent to the Console log, which you can see in the OS X Console log viewer app (for the iOS Simulator) or in the Xcode Devices dialog box (for the iOS Device).

DataSnap Applications Target machine:
|
|
To run, debug, and deploy a DataSnap application on OS X or a remote Win64 target, you must create a connection profile and install and run the Platform Assistant server, the remote application server, on an actively connected machine running the target platform. For OS X applications, you must add an SDK as well. For more information, see: |
