Just a note on VCL. It stands for Visual Components Library (or something similar) and it was developed a visual components library ( Razz

Razz

), and as such other features where introduced to support the visual stuff. You can't expect it to be a general purpose library. But as the version number increased, the library got a good deal of non-visual features. But you still needed a good systems interaction library if you didn't want to use windows API. And under Delphi, not BCB, using it felt more integrated. I couldn't shake the feeling when working in BCB that VCL for C was more of an afterthought than a real alternative. An BCB 1.0 was extremely buggy.

Yes, BCB 1.0 was buggy, but following versions were more than ok.
BTW, the buggiest Borland product I've ever seen was C#builder 1.0 ... That one was quite unusable.

But VCL is a good *visual* library, with some more stuffs. And, besides, you could get many more components for BCB/Delphi on open source/shareware market.
