The Borland developers are back (with a new name) at last...
Tuesday 19 December 2006.
Yes, Delphi, C++Builder at al are back in action...
Just in case you missed it, CodeGear (that is, the renamed and wholly owned subsidiary-ized Borland Developer Group) has finally got their web site on line: http://www.codegear.com/
Sadly too late for us
This is not the first confusion that Borland has created, I remember the very confusing transition to Inprise, and then back to Borland, who gives these people jobs to decide important decisions like this in the first place?
We made a decision amidst the turmoil of the Borland indecisiveness to only continue to support our exisitng Delphi projects and to move to C# for future develoment this transition to a new development language was certainly easier for us to understand than the Borland one!!
This saddens me as Delphi rocks, I say open up Delphi and let people who care about its future look after and develop it, because Codegear or Borland or whoever you are now don’t deserve such a responsibility.
I will still devlop Delphi from home now, but very little will be happening with Delphi at work anymore
On a final note regarding the French article, I wonder how much truth is really in that? why should we believe anything we are told by Borland or Codegear or whoever anymore?
Thanks for the message, David. You know I love Delphi so I’m always glad to see developments from you guys. I started programming Delphi before version one was even released (one of the perks of being a computer journo ) and I was using various versions of Turbo Pascal long before that!
On the subject of tutorials, I am a bit behind schedule in putting the latest Delphi tutorial online (as you may know, ’other things’ are taking up a heck of a lot of my time at the moment). I’ll see if I can catch up over Christmas...
