Why off topic category? The survey results are pretty much on topic and might start a good and thoughtful discussion :) It is interesting how do they compare to the voting results on https://plus.google.com/106113488672628694933/posts/1faZ9MdrhYa
ReplyDeleteNew results are quite optimistic about XE3 adoption. XE2 is a king of the hill at the moment, luckily for me XE&D7 are on par and not a small fraction yet.
ReplyDeleteWhy off topic? Me being new to G+ communities and putting it there by accident. :)
ReplyDeleteRegardless, the volume of posts is low enough in the group that I don't think it got missed by most readers.
People, why you are still using Delphi 7 ?
ReplyDeleteWe use Delphi 7 because it's the good old Delphi. FPC compatible, has no quirks with unicode (we don't need it yet) and a good set of 3rd-party libs rigged and tested for years. Moving codebase to XE2 will take a big amount of manhours.
ReplyDeletemain in D2009 , Now try to update to XE2,
ReplyDeleteKrom Stern The very best none-Unicode Delphi version is 2007. It's stable and backward compatible.
ReplyDeleteDmitry Filimonov Yet Delphi 7 is much more popular for some reason. We stick to it in our project for that reason too
ReplyDeleteI started with D3, used D5, D7, D2007 and using DXE at the moment. Had tough times upgrading every version but never regretted it. I can easily say that the best ide I used is XE (didn't have time to check out XE2 or XE3). Its fast, its stable and makes me feel uptodate.
ReplyDeleteBora Aydemir XE was the best version I used so far. XE2 has a lots of bugs, some very annoying and apparently XE3 is the same thing.
