There's never any truth. Any comment is directed squarely at Borland/CodeGear.<BR/><BR/>2) I have exhausted all revenues available to me to get Borland to recognise their mistake (no one writes perfect code) before I blog my experience, including putting up with some very arrogant, indifferent and ignorant support feedbacks.<BR/><BR/>There isn't too many situations in my software design activities that involve using partly with Delphi .Net that my .Net design come together without encountering Borland's own special treatment.<BR/><BR/>I am just following ECMA standard and yet there are so many cases of violation all in the guise of providing Borland Advantage.<BR/><BR/>This COM issue is just one of many. The others are documented in <A HREF="http://thinkers-soapbox.spaces.live.com/" REL="nofollow">my other stale Blog</A>.<BR/><BR/>My advice is to be on the lookout and know the technology you are using so that you'll not get push around.L.

Instead of providing a stable and robust tool, fixing bugs and improving the code, they keep adding new useless features just in order to sell upgrades.EMaurohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04997077697789577787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3150901600152577599.post-65724838997281911812007-02-09T10:33:00.000+10:002007-02-09T10:33:00.000+10:00on you mate.

Frustrating that a Professional software development tool that I invested so many years experience in get's treated this way. Borland treated Delphi badly and over the years it has slipped from a superior commercial development platform to a hobbist tool because realistically you can't trust commercial development to a tool that is maintained so poorly. So good on you kick 'em in the goolies. Borland deserves it after ignoring such a blatant stupid error for so long.Dintherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09444894238003853527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3150901600152577599.post-4225343907716424282006-12-09T11:04:00.000+10:002006-12-09T11:04:00.000+10:00Keep in mind a software company, in particular, is...Keep in mind a software company, in particular, is really its employees thus repeatedly insulting the entity is unlikely to be the most effective way to instigate change.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
