Delphi vs C++

[Wings]

Hi,
What are the benefits of borland delphi versus borland c++.
Major differences ect. I am not familiar with delphi and was considering learning it. Any insights?

Nowadays anything you can do in Delphi you can do it in BCB and viceverse.

So the main diference is the Language, you should choose between C++ or Pascal

I agree with lastcyborg and as i understand it the graphic work in Delphi and C Builder is exactly the same.
I started with Pascal and swore by it for a long period but after having tasted C i realized very quickly that it was the thing for me. So i have tried both and liked C better but that goes for me. Later in life i realized that nearly all Build-In systems are programmed in C and for lower level access i find C better than Pascal.

I agree that C++ is, somehow, superior, but bear in mind that Delphi is Borland'a tool of choice, so C++Builder will always be one or two steps behind (just look at all those nice things in Delphi7... C++Builder7 anytime soon? Hardly...)
