Several of our old projects have been put on hold, as we are now busy with several new and exciting developments which we can't talk about just yet.

Delphi XE2

I am now using the latest version of Delphi – it is called 'XE2'.

It does have many new and wonderful features!

I'll try to list a few of them here:

• Full 64-bit compiler and frameworks for Windows
  
• Cross Platform – a project can now easily be built to run on the following platforms:
  
  • Windows 32 bit (Win-XE, etc.)
    
  • Windows 64 bit (the latest Win-7 computers)
    
  • Mac OS-X (normal Apple Mac computers)
    
  • Mac iOS (Apple iPhone, iPad, etc. devices)
    
• FireMonkey – this is a totally new visual development library, and it allows for the development of 2-D and 3-D forms and displays – nearly all the snazzy graphics we have seen on a Mac are now available on a PC!
  
• VCL and Form styling – where you had to use third-party components to change a Form's theme, this is now built in.
  
• GPU-powered graphics – using the graphics processor now for graphics instead of using the main CPU.
  
• Live Bindings – a way to connect Data and Components to each other – in almost any mix-and-match. You do not need Data-aware components, as nearly any component can be made Data-aware.
  
• FastReport - almost the full version of the FastReport reporting framework is included.
  
• and many, many more….
  
• and it comes with older versions of Delphi  (7, 2007-XE)

I now have the latest versions of NexusDB and TMS Components to with XE2, and they work well.

I am finding little things – it is a lot more stable that the versions from the last few years, and it has some very good de-bugging features (which work) – I like!
