RE: different testing OS

[Fernando <pinudwn@swbell.net>]

	I've done the opposite (native OS Windows 2000 to testing on Red
Hat Linux 7.2) and seen a tremendous difference in the GUI interface
side.  Although the backend processing didn't need debugging as far as
the coding, the GUI didn't have the same luck.
	Through this affair developing an application, I realized that
the "write once, run anywhere" philosophy is definitely more complex
than it may seem.
	When testing, you may think of using an IDE in Linux to debug
any problems you may have.  Only reason is to save time.
	I hope you have better luck than I did!

BTW, both of the OS environments used SDK 1.3.0.

Subject: different testing OS

Hi,
Can anyone told me what is the harm by testing
application on a Window machine and actual production
is running on the Linux or unix OS beside the path and
resources?

Thanks a lot!
Linda
