Yes, it is Windows only and it is not a Pascal IDE, but a *C++ IDE*.

They picked up an abandoned Open Source C++ IDE called "Dev C++", which 
by itself was a fork of an abandoned Open Source C++ IDE called 
"Bloodshed C++". And that one was written in Delphi starting back in 
1998, many, many moons ago. Lazarus had it's first beta version out in 
2003.

Curious


It is not your submission but the reply of someone else, who's email 
server had a spam filter triggered, possibly a false positive of your 
message on their system through a misconfiguration.


I see your original message just fine, without the spam tag...

In my honest opinion, I don't think there is anything WE can learn from
Embarcadero (other than how not to do things). But I do believe there is
a lot they can learn from us.

The Free Pascal and Larazus community should be leading the future of the
Object Pascal languge, not Embarcadero.

  Graeme

It's nice that Embarcadero comes back to a Pascal IDE build with Pascal.

It's seems this IDE is compiled with Delphi 7, with .bat and .exe files, 
I imagine it's windows only ?


May be it would have been nice that they sponsor Lazarus ;-) ?

Lazarus runs on nearly every platform where you want to develop, 
Windows, x86 Linux, Raspberry, Mac ...


I imagine it would be complicated to reconcile the delphi bpl package 
concept with lazarus package concept.
