Hello,
are there any news about the future of CBX? Is there still some effort in further integration of wxwidgets in forthcoming versions?

There was an insightful message by Julian on the ml a while back - basically the jist of it is that there was a war between two camps in Borland - the java camp and the c++ camp.
Guess which one won :\.
Anyway, their IDE is insanely slow anyway since they built it on java.
Borland - java is only meant for apps with a few widgets, not entire IDEs
that have close to 50 of them at any given time!
EDIT: Grammer, clarification

The original (still existant) graveyard:

About the SF:

I couldn't find any on the java/c++ angle though -I changed e-mail clients a few days ago (from ThunderBird to Outlook XP) and lost everything .

From a user's perspective, it seems that at Borland a war has been raging on for the best part of the last two years between common sense and stupidity, and as you said yourself, guess who won...Ryan Norton wrote:There was an insightful message by Julian on the ml a while back - basically the jist of it is that there was a war between two camps in Borland - the java camp and the c++ camp.
C++BuilderX is going to be renamed to something else, and it is s-l-o-w and a resource hog, and hardly an improvement over a slew of available IDEs out there...
As far as wxWidgets are concerned, wxDev-Cpp is *the* alternative for Windows.
