If what InfoWorld said is true(a month ago), Inprise will be releasing Delphi and C++Builder for Linux sometime next year. With STRONG Visual Development tools. According to the article, it will be oriented toward those that have Windows code. That is, it will be aligned so that creating Linux from existing Delphi/C++Builder Windows programs will be simplest. Personally, I think that is a very good approach. One can then unify development across multiplatforms. This will add to the JBuilder future enormously, and Inprise. Who knows maybe they will bundle all three into a single development package for Linux. (Its About time for someone to do this) Watcom always broadcast their products as being cross platform for dos/ext dos /windows(any)/os2 with good results of a 'single set' of tools to learn! By making the VCL's similar one is somewhat insulated from the various APIs. If they can do that with JBuilder Too, wow!
