- tonyedgecombe 6y agoIt's much heavier than what we had with Delphi/VB, it feels like wading through treacle in comparison.
- pjmlp 6y agoWe still have, Delphi might not be loved by younger generations, but it is still around for those that care. Same applies to C++ Builder, which MS still hasn't been able to match. C++/CX was the closest we got on VS, but then politics killed it.
- GordonS 6y agoWinForms in Visual Studio is fast enough, but working with WPF and XAML certainly used to be painfully, painfully slow! Visual Studio would grind to a halt and memory usage would go through the roof. In fairness, I haven't done any Windows desktop development for some time, so the XAML designer might be less crap nowadays.
