Nope - XE has no cross-platform support (in the sense of Delphi compiler
support for anything other than Win32).

like I say I had really not seen anything definitive. Admittedlty I didnt
look THAT hard :-)
Begs the question, why upgrade? About the only thing that I have seen we
can use right now is the SVN stuff, and the Final builder stuff could come
in handy.
We have just abount finished upgrading a
From what has been blogged/demonstrated of the SVN IDE integration, it
doesn't appear as flexible or as useful (imho) as the JEDI SVN plug-in or
indeed straightforward Tortoise. This could be the result of being an SVN
adapter that is part of a generic (little g) version control plug-in
We are looking at having a couple of events here in October - Auckland,
Christchurch. Hopefully that will give people an avenue to get a better
understanding of the value RAD XE provides them.

Just curious,
Some had certainly not been addressed as of Delphi 2010. These are unlikely
to have been addressed in XE either since their status already suggests that
they are considered fixed (or in the case of suggestions/enhancements,
implemented) when they are not.
Which raises the question of what a
At the very least this time around they should be offering the unpadded

That is an interesting idea which I agree would be nice. I suspect

I had a look at your items. A couple of items are suggestions for new
directives/reserved words. These decisions are not taken lightly.
Especially prior to the new back end compiler.
A lot of these were made during the time Danny was looking after the

Yep, I forget the item #'s and don't have time to look them up right now,

There was another which is a bug caused by qualifying class names in a form

It is pretty lame but it was really a Quick Fix measure to pump
up the QC figures - in my opinion.
That sort of thing goes on? gasp ;)
e.g. File New VCL Application, rename form as MainMenu (yielding a form
class name of TMainMenu) then drop a TMainMenu component on it.
