Which bit? The Prism comment? To be fair, I've not looked at Prism itself but back when it was Chrome, before it became Oxygene I remember thinking that it was what Delphi.NET *should* have been and made .NET palatable and interesting again.
There's something inherently messy about C# which offends my eye, and ime messy = a pain to maintain in the long run, that and the fact that I'm subject to the whim of a "black box" runtime environment and framework. I think deep down I'm a bit of a control freak. :) I was put off Java (back when *that* was the language that everyone was going to have to learn if they wanted to stay in work), for the same reason(s). In general C# and some of the language features being shoe horned into it (and these Days Delphi too as it continues the "me too" game) makes it look increasingly like a language created for code generators, not humans. -----Original Message----- From: delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz [mailto:delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz] On Behalf Of Jeremy North Sent: Thursday, 17 September 2009 3:41 p.m. To: NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi List Subject: Re: [DUG] A change in upgrade policy coming from Embarcadero You honestly think that?
