[Jprogramming] Application Building

[Alex Rufon]

I would suggest installing VirtualBox and install a Windows OS there. Although a bit more setup work at first but if you would need to do this porting a few times ... a "test" machine would be better in the long run.

My setup in the office is somewhat similar. I develop on Vista Ultimate but I have an Ubuntu server which have VirtualBox installed with WindowsXP (around 90% of my target environment) and available through remote desktop connection. The cool thing about this is that I have snapshots which I always revert to when I muck it up.

I say this so that you can keep your Ubuntu system and plunge-in to testing/migrating your system out in windows. Just post your problems here and most likely we will be able to help.

I have an application that reads a file of monthly pump flow data, it
makes an analysis and outputs a summary and plot.

There is only one function but it requires loading files and plot.

I have developed it on my Ubuntu system and need to pass it over to
several others who inevitably will run it on a Windows box. 

I could build it on somebodies Windows box ... I suppose :)
