Charles... I imagine you are probably hearing this a lot, but... any idea when Kylix will be available to the public? Please excuse me if the info is available on their home page... I got tired of checking there months ago. I started programming with Borland products and now, to keep a pay check coming, use MSVC and VB. I'm a big Borland fan... wanted to attend that conference... and I can't wait to check out what they are doing with Linux.

C++ Builder supports the equivalent of Delphi extensions to the Pascal language including properties, methods, and events. Additionally, component creation requires additional skills that a standard C++ program would have to acquire. I've been working with Delphi since its initial release and there are many thing you must know to produce high quality, reusable and commercial grade components for the C++ Builder/Delphi environment (which are interchangable, BTW). I just got back from the Borland conference in San Diego this morning. Good conference...they show some cool stuff. Naturally, anything Kylix (Delphi and C++ Builder on Linux)was heavily attended events with Delphi related events being the most most popular. Maybe 30% of those attending the show were BCB users. The only really new product shown (everybody already knew about Kylix) was JBuilder for Macintosh and the announcement of a collaboration between Apple and Borland. They also showed Delphi 6, but since that is at least six months away, it only got a mild reception. InterBase is STILL not Open Sourced...blame it, like most things, on the lawyers. At least that's what both Borland's CEO and Interbase Corp's CEO are saying.
