Summary: The Title Says it all
Comment: This book stands out from the rest. It is not a book for beginners, but a solid discussion of real world solutions.

Any experienced Delphi developer needs to add this to his/her collection.

Covers topics such as Inter-process communications, semaphores, threading etc. Well written with not so bad example code.

Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent book
Comment: Differently from 99% of the programming books nowadays, this one doesn't spend 200 pages with topics such as "installing Kylix" and "What is Linux?". It goes straight to the point. For example, on page 30 you'll be learning how to use shared libraries, and around page 80 you'll be reading about process control already. It doesn't mean the authors skip anything important, they go thoroughly all you need to know to develop real-world applications, they just don't suffer from the "Hello Hello World" and "brick-sized-books" syndrome (this one has 300 pages).

If you're an intermediate or experienced Windows programmer (C++, VB, Delphi, .Net) trying to put your feet on Linux world, this book is a great buy, Kylix is the smoothest transition tool available right now (at least while Mono project is not finished).

Summary: My favorite Kylix reference
Comment: This one contains so many useful Linux tidbits and "How to get things done" sections, it is always the Kylix reference I pick up first.
