No one has the weird idea to mix Delphi and C++. And often there is code
with generic classes which can't be mixed. Accept it or not: Delphi is
and will never be relevant in the world of sw-development. At the time
when Delphi hit the market, the train for Pascal-derivatives had already
come to an end.

You are not understanding, C++ is easy for me, i can learn it much more 
easily and quickly.

C++ isn't an easy language and even if you have been programming for a
long time you will hit subtleties again and again.

Bonita specifically started the thread "Task for Amine", in order to 
insult the guy, and start a "fight" thread.  We all know Amine makes 
annoying posts, but that is because he is clearly not quite right in the 
head.  But Bonita's posts recently are bring a whole new level of 
nastiness into it.  It is really unpleasant.

No, that's not a fight. I thought he could be encouraged to write his
code in a language which is more accepted and write code for a problem
that he might like since he had done a lot of parallel code.

No, you didn't.  There are many ways to describe you based on your 
postings - "stupid" is not one of them.

I think I remember from earlier discussions that we have different
definitions of "troll" -- mine is "someone whose goal is to disrupt
discussion".  Until now I've assumed BM isn't a troll, acts in good
faith -- but has some kind of social handicap.

The end result is the same, though, and I agree that interaction with
BM here is pointless.

Mixing Delphi and C++ (C++ Builder) is not a crazy idea. Actually it is 
very common in the "world" of Embarcadero (the company that currently 
own those tools). Why is very common? Because the GUI libraries (VCL and 
FireMonKey) that are used by C++ Builder are built with Delphi. The 
interoperability between both languages is really easy if you follow 
some simple rules... just compile with one compiler and use it with the 
other (of course, there a lot of C++ features that cannot be used in 
Delphi).

Last but not least, accept it or not: Delphi is still relevant in the 
world of software development (I know, the TIOBE index is not best 
source, but check it too see Delphi there on top of go, rust, 
TypeScript, Scala, Dart, Visual Basic, etc)

Ok, that might be right. But you usually write code on your own which
mixes Delphi and C++ in the same project.

Delphi is about as relevant as COBOL. ;-)

And the best: if you want to get an employment as a Delphi-developer
you have to move away very far.

I am making a universal compiler that can compile ANY programming language 
and that allows you to mix ANY programming language with ANY OTHER 
programming language in the same source file.

Well, a month ago I received an offer on Linkedin (Delphi Software 
Developer), I have to confess that that surprised me :-O (my last 
contact with Delphi/C++ Builder was 15 years ago). In some parts of 
Argentina, Delphi is still relevant, but of course, not like years ago. 
It's a very good product IMHO, but it's proprietary, very expensive and 
the cool kids today use web interfaces even in the desktop land :-O

COBOL is massively relevant - even today.  I am not convinced by the 
estimates I have read of the quantity of COBOL code written in recent 
years, but even if they are out by a couple of orders of magnitude, 
COBOL is still a huge industry and a major programming language.

In the same vein, Delphi is a major language / development tool, with a 
very large base in commercial companies.  It is relatively small in the 
world of open source, sourceforge, github, etc., and so on.  When you 
are using close source software on Windows, you won't know it is written 
in Delphi - but it might well be.

And yes, there is plenty of software that mixes C++ and Delphi.
