Um, no. Check out Delphi, Lazarus and FPC. No where near
"obsolete".
I was really pleased with FPC! Are people actually creating
new projects with it? I was grateful to discover FPC so I
could update my photoplotter program and move away from the
Turbo Pascal / Windows XP executable I have been using.
But, I haven't used it for any new projects. (Yet.)
