>> garbage collection To be honest, I would prefer that I take control, instead of relying on someone else.
Just get a copy of MemCheck.pas source code, no more memory leaks. ;-) Regards Leigh http://www.salenz.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Myles Penlington Sent: Thursday, 17 November 2005 3:05 p.m. To: NZ Borland Developers Group - Offtopic List Subject: RE: [DUG-Offtopic] Delphi User Group Managed code, garbage collection, large library. Just to name a few. At the moment in our project I would kill for garbage collection.

I hate to say this but If Delphi goes .NET, then whats the point. Delphi has always been the Better altenative to M$. If Borland plays M$ games then IMHO , Open source is the way of the future. Cross platform and flexibilty is number one in my company, and if any force toward a certain technology and framework is implied then I am sure that there are may other means to do development that will be taken up with no objection. Any .NET enforcement will mean a complete drop of Delphi. I would like to hear from .Net (And Delphi.NET) developers who are willing to inform me of the benefits of .NET. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Leigh Wanstead Sent: Thursday, 17 November 2005 2:47 p.m. To: NZ Borland Developers Group - Offtopic List Subject: RE: [DUG-Offtopic] Delphi User Group I think today the best Delphi version is Delphi 7.

I can concur a little with this. Using both VS C++ .NET and Delphi 7. I find VS a monumental pain. Borland however reminds me very much of DEC - great engineering and useless marketing/pricing/product strategies. They just arent doing themselves any favours. IMHO Pro should be core product. (once bitten, twice shy on the highlevel versions - I'll choose my own 3rd party tools with long term support and support across versions thank you). Concentrate on performance, IDE, processor support (64bit for start) and cross-platform. And don't think documentation is afterthought. Glad I havent done an "upgrade" from D7 for all accounts. ---------------------------------------------------------- Phil Scadden, Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences 764 Cumberland St, Private Bag 1930, Dunedin, New Zealand Ph +64 3 4799663, fax +64 3 477 5232 _______________________________________________ Offtopic mailing list [email protected] http://ns3.123.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/offtopic _______________________________________________ Offtopic mailing list [email protected] http://ns3.123.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/offtopic _______________________________________________ Offtopic mailing list [email protected] http://ns3.123.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/offtopic Attention: This communication is confidential and may be legally privileged.
