- The last time I saw this discussed, several people claimed that doing
- Delphi in C++ would be impractical. You need to make additions to the
- language in order to support e.g. properties. The standard committees (sp?)
- AFAIK work rather slow, so I'm not expecting a C++ version any time soon...
-
- I'd rather want (and expect) Delphi to become multiplatform. E.g. the guys
- who make Speedpascal for OS/2 have stated that they will do a Delphi
- compatible OS/2 version and possible Mac / Motif versions too.
