OK, may I send a post in the Delphi Non-Tech style? ;)

As I understand, in the first half of 2013 we expect two releases of IDEs with Pascal-like languages for iOS and OSX. It is the Embarcadero's Delphi AKA Quintessence and the RemObjects' Oxygene AKA Nougat. It's interesting that both compilers have the LLVM as a backend, isn't it?
If yes, it'll be very exciting epic battle between 2 Pascal-based environments/languages/compilers. The battle for minds and money of the Object Pascal developers. But the winner should be one: the Pascal community isn't very large now to support both solutions for OSX/iOS.
So who will be a winner and why? It's the question.

I think the mobile addition will just be an add-in to the IDE to support iOS. The existing support for OS X will be retained.
ReplyDeleteIf delphi will throw the various compilers to pass completely to llvm not just for iOS will be better for all the community.
