If we had an "Unsung Hero of the Delphi Community" award to give out, it probably would have to go to John Moshakis. John’s latest? For example, he created a data provider for Blackfish so he can use it with BlogEngine.Net. Pretty cool.
From the "Old […]
My good friend Tim Jarvis makes an excellent point: "Well you know you have made it in the word when Verity Stob mentions you by name in her column."
Michael Swindell and I (mostly Michael) did a podcast with Dr. Dobbs about Delphi for PHP 2.0
You can now tag articles on CDN, and help build […]
Gotta like this stuff — Embarcadero Change Manager wins the Editor’s Choice award from SQL Server Magazine. The Embarcadero lineup of products is pretty sweet if you are a database developer.
I’m surprised that cell phone repeaters like this aren’t more popular. It seems to me that something like this would be very useful […]
Best question asked at the All Hand meeting yesterday: "When’s the party?"
Sounds like things were pretty crazy at JavaOne yesterday.
Interesting graph: http://www.news.com/8301-13580_3-9936329-39.html
One thing that is clear to me — Embarcadero is most decidedly not an "ALM Company". That phrase carries a some baggage for many of you, but it seems pretty clear […]
I despise wires. I hate them. They get tangled. They get caught. You have to snake them around to where you want them to go. Right now, my biggest wish is a relatively inexpensive, effective pair of wireless headphones. So when I see this — Is Wireless Power Closer Than We Think? — I get […]
I had the web guys add (Thanks, Tim) the Delphi Wiki to the Delphi Resources Page.
Interesting list of top ten tools every Delphi developer should have. (Got this from the DZone entry — feel free to click it up).
Everyone likes a good rant — and this one is above average, I think.
Far […]
I think our new web site looks really great — keep your eyes peeled for more valuable content coming down the pike. I particularly like the Delphi Resources page. Also, we’ll have a pretty thorough "Feature Drill Down" like the one for Delphi for PHP.
For all you German speakers — Danny Magin gives a heads […]
CapableObjects, the guys who build ECO — an integral part of Delphi — have a spiffy new website.
DZone is a pretty cool site that I found today and signed up for. It’s sort of like a Digg just for developers. It looks fairly new, as nothing seems to have very many votes, but it […]
There are 24 entries in Zarko’s "Creating Fancy Applications" Delphi Contest. I may have an app laying around that I’m going to submit.
Way to go, Marco! Keep up the good work. And while we are reading Marco’s blog, make sure to give a look to the VB2Delphi converter he talks about.
Huw Collingbourne […]
From this "If you can read Portuguese" Department — RBM Web has a nice collection of products, all built with Delphi for PHP. If you haven’t yet taken a look at Delphi for PHP, you should. And keep an eye out, as the road map shows where we are headed with the product.
This may […]
I am going to be on the road next week. I’ll be attending the COMMON Conference for AS400 developers, showing them all the cool stuff you can do with Delphi/400 and Delphi/400 for PHP. Should be fun — it is being held in Nashville at the Gaylord Opryland Resort, which is where we had a […]
This Eric Lippert post really hits home for me. It is always way more complicated to get something done than you first think. That was a big lesson of my first year here. Starting here, I was as guilty as the next non-tech poster of saying "Why can’t they just do <some feature> over the […]
Nice article in Redmond Developer — Delphi Goes to School in Russia
Here’s another one in SDA India — QA with Jim Douglas (CEO) & Ravi Kumar (Principal Architect of JBuilder) for CodeGear
Help Update #2 is now available for download on the Registered User Page. You can also get the IDE to check for updates […]
BTW, pursuant to the launch of the Delphi/400 products, I’ll be at the COMMON Conference in Nashville at the end of the month. Some of you old timers might remember the venue from Borcon a number of years ago. If by chance you are there, stop by our booth to say hello.
More Delphi/400 […]
The Delphi Survey is now available in Polish.
Nice mention of Delphi and CodeGear here. I like the sound of "A Compiler for Every Child", especially when it is the Delphi compiler.
New Blog: Turbo for Noobs
Andreano reports that Delphi won Premios Software Guru (Software Guru awards) award for "Best Framework". Those folks in Mexico […]
CodeGear made more money.
I’ve been going around the world telling people that we will be "continuously improving and frequently updating the help". Well, pursuant to that, we have released another help update. Please download it and give it a look. And please be sure to tell all your friends about it.
The indefatigable Pawel Glowacki has […]
New Blog: Danny Magin
Are you guys aware that with the December Update, we distributed some new source code? Take a look at: C:\Program Files\CodeGear\RAD Studio\5.0\source\dotNet\asp\provider and see. It’s the code for the DBXASPProvider that we ship with Delphi for .Net. Give it a look, as it shows a good use of our […]
Blackfish Deployment licenses are available!
Long time community member Dennis Landi has an interesting project starting up: Electron Server. It’s a web server written in Delphi specifically for Delphi developers. The emphasis seems to be on being able to leverage your existing Delphi code and business logic. There is also an article showing how to get […]
Happy Birthday, Delphi!
Some cool code: Delphi Fundamentals
Marco Cantu has begun his Delphi support program called "The Delphi Mentor". Pretty cool service with a pretty impressive list of mentors.
Something to consider before saying "I can’t find any Delphi programmers."

I’m determined not to link to the Yahoo/Microsoft thing. I think I’ve read like 23 blog posts about it this morning. I’ll add to the inevitable discussion by saying that I used to be a big Yahoo guy, but now I’m just a Yahoo guy. http://my.yahoo.com is my main homepage, but my use of […]
The CodeGear RAD Studio Reviewers Guide is available both as an HTML article and as a PDF if you want to print it out.
Hadi Hariri notes that Ken Henderson, a member of the Delphi community from many years back, has passed away. If I recall correctly, I met Ken at a Borcon years ago. […]
The Skype Team needs a Delphi developer. I think I’ve mentioned once or twice that the Windows Skype client is developed with Delphi.
One of the unsung heroes of the Delphi community is Zarko Gajic, the guy who runs the http://delphi.about.com website. He has an RSS feed that, if you aren’t already subscribed, you […]
More Unicode FAQ’s from Allen.
Nice blog post by the folks at Screaming Duck about why they like Pascal and Delphi. Nice. Even nicer is that you can "vote" for it on Reddit and on Digg.com.
Marco points out that Delphi is rising in the TIOBE Index.
This is a few days late now, but […]
Allen puts out some good information on Unicode and Delphi. Chris Bensen does as well.
Marco Cantu has announced a new support system for Delphi called support @ marcocantu.com. It’s an interesting concept — private newsgroups specific to your company.
Not Delphi news, but JBuilder was named the year’s best Java IDE by InfoWorld. That’s […]
Be sure to check out the latest CodeGear Developer Network Newsletter.
If you speak French, this online conference called Codeway1 on 11 January might be of interest to you. It has a cool promotional video, too.
DavidI has an interview in eWeek — CodeGear Exec Shares Vision for Programming in 2027
I think a while back […]
Well, back from the Christmas break — sorry if we’ve been a bit quiet around here.
Can you read Turkish? If so, there’s a Delphi book out there for you!
Julian Bucknall is getting his great EZDSL library ready for Unicode.
Cool stuff from Uwe Raabe — Delphi Magic that lets you iterate over all records in […]
Folks were asking for the "Powered By" links as a zip file, so here it is.
Jacob Thurman has a new website called Delphi Puzzles. It took me a minute, but I got the first one figured out.
Fixes for the December Update:
284 Core bugfixes
93 Delphi 2007 fixes
46 C++ Builder fixes
157 Delphi 2007 .NET fixes
Share This […]
I’ve written an article on building Live Template Scripting Engines. It’s surprisingly easy, and I try to make it a little easier by providing a base class that does some of the grunt work for you.
We’ve added a link to the Delphi Product page that highlights third-party components that work with Delphi 2007 and RAD […]
The tool palette continues to be a hot topic! Jacob Thurman of Castalia fame has thrown a spanner in the works with his new "Mini-Palette". It sure looks like it is a "best of both worlds" solution.
If you haven’t taken a look at the G Framework lately, you might want to check in. I see […]
Here’s a nice case study from Euclid Technologies. They used Delphi 2007 to beat their competition to Vista. You can’t do that with any other development tool.
Let me give you a tip: If you post a comment on my blog here with some generic comment like "Very good site. Thank you!!!" or "Thanks for the […]
