On my faculty, every year, you can choose an optional course. Almost everyone requested “Visual Programming with C++”.
The first course. Professor: “Eventhough it is a Visual C++ course we are going to study Delphi” :-|

You can say that you are in Romania!
Ohh, that sucks!
We should have a firmer stance angainst those things!
lasa ca si in facultatea mea am 2 cursuri care se numesc: “programare logica” si “programare declarativa”. cursurile nu contin absolut nimic de programare, ca sa nu mai spun de logica… e doar o matematica abstracta si neinteleasa de nimeni, ca de asta si sunt in fiecare an 80% din studenti cu restante. traiasca sistemul de invatamant romanesc!
In aceeasi situatie cu tine… Asta e.. regresam, regresam, cat mai multe invatam. Si nici macar nu era in top 3 la cursuri alese, ne-a fost bagat pe gat..
C++, Delphi sucks
i pitty you…i pitty me…cos i’m at the same college…:(
Yes, C++ is more spread,stable(etc.), but Delphi desn’t suck. There is more to say about Delphi, and not all bad things. But just to give you all something to thing about, the Visual Studio 2003 IDE was designed by the same programmer as the Delphi RAID IDE. You can also see SOME resemblances in the code of the example projects. Look closer ;).
@Unknown: recall there are two flavors of C++: managed (and the managed C++ extension looks horrible; indeed, you can use the CLR and .NET library, but I’d rather switch to C# for this), and Native C++ which is C++ one learns from the school; it’s fast and it does not depend on the .NET framework. In other words: the IDE is just one side of the story. See the whole stuff.
@Lucian: Then the comparison between C++ and Delphi is wrong and should be C++ vs Object Pascal because Delphi is a RAD Native Windows Application Development IDE
@Unknown: true…
