Best Language/Library for manipulating impressions

Question

Here in the company I work, we have a system in Clipper+PCL that makes the monthly impressions, with it we manage tray and control front and back. However it is becoming more difficult to maintain it, because we have to run it in a 98 win environment, or emulate in a virtual environment.

Anyway, I want to know the best way to get this new system done, whether I use Java with Ireport or even Itext, or Delphi (Rad Studio) with Fastreport or another library or even another language? Remembering that the most important part is the tray handling and control of front and back, today this is done in the PCL of prints.

Answer 1

It is only up to you to choose the best option. I particularly like Delphi by the ready parts and have less than programming.

The way forward is to migrate the database.

My advice is to do in parallel and your new application go taking the site of the old partially until it is 100% tested to replace.
