Re: help- .NET application - very tough architecture question



..Net installer for CD.

Thin client.. unsure... will depend on clients having web access... need more deets on that.

Server - .Net 3.5, WPF actually provides a load of 3d tools - I just finished a 3D engine in WPF... 1 click installer, on a CD.

Sound good?

SegFault.

A friend has the WORST software architecture situation in the world.
I was wondering if anyone could help me walk him through it.

He has a business logic engine for mapping 3-d data to the screen
written in C++.

His clients want him to create a thin-client, preferably a web-based
tool on a CD-Rom. This can have an access database on the backend.
The clients want to deliver this product in 2009. So there will be a
cd rom with a one-click install that will utilize the 3d mapping
engine in C++.

He must then take the same code and implement it on a server in 2010.
The same front-end and the same middleware must be put on a server.
The clients do not have a server now.

As you can imagine this is a noncommercial product. The above
requirements cannot change unless we can positively prove they won't
work.

We are looking into how to architect something like this. Any tips or
tricks?

thanks!
