Delphi Versions

 

Delphi is still around and very much alive, but under new ownership. Borland really lost their way. They had a really large product line, and the main thing that people were interested in was Delphi, but what the PHBs thought was going to be big was not their development tools, but their Application Lifecycle Management tools. So they put a lot of resources into developing and promoting that instead of Delphi, and let the development tools branch languish. I even heard from some former Borland employees at the Delphi Live! Conference a few years ago that their sales people were actively discouraged and dis-incentivized (is that a word?) from trying to sell Delphi at all, even to potential clients who expressed interest up-front. A few years back, things changed.

Borland sold their entire development tools division to Embarcadero Technologies, which up to that point was mostly known for database-related software. Now their big claim to fame is that they're the guys who make Delphi.

Just for complement the answer of Johan check this entry on my blog List of changes between versions of Delphi (Since Delphi 5) and the excellent page The TIndex which list most of the new features since delphi 2005 and resources about each one. Lazarus Release Candidate 1 for 2.0 - October 14, 2018, 08:45:13 pm The Lazarus team is glad to announce the first release candidate of Lazarus 2.0. This release was built with FPC 3.0.4. The CompilerVersion constant was introduced in Delphi 6 along with conditional expressions. In earlier Delphi versions various compiler defined VERxxx symbols are used to determine compiler versions. CompilerVersion values and the equivalent compiler defined symbols for the Delphi versions in which the CompilerVersion constant is defined are.

Within a few months of the sale, Borland stock fell below $1/share and they were bought out by a 'corporate graveyard' company that basically does nothing but manage licensing fees on existing products. Borland no longer exists. Embarcadero, though, actually cares about Delphi. They've put a lot of work and effort into it, and the product quality has improved tremendously in the last few releases. Despite both the recession and Delphi being a commercial-only tool in a perceived 'age of open-source development,' sales have been really strong and the team's been able to make a lot of progress. TL;DR: Borland is dead; Delphi is not.

It's 'Embarcadero Delphi' now, and it's very much alive and kicking. Borland had a sizable offering of languages, tools and applications, but Pascal was their main meal ticket. The problem is that they put all their eggs in the Windows basket when they could have branched out to the Macintosh market. It may have been much smaller, but they could have owned the cross platform development strategy. The fact that Mac development was still done in Pascal made it a no brainer.
