If you are doing any native Windows development and also need to interact with a lot of COM objects and apis it's really hard to beat Delphi. It's so much nicer than dealing with C++ and WTL.
- bloblaw 6y agoAgree++ The "WMI Delphi Code Creator" (written in Delphi) is a great example of this. "The WMI Delphi Code Creator (WDCC), allows you to generate Object Pascal, Oxygene, C++ and C# code to access the WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) classes, events and methods. Also includes a set of tools to explorer and Query the content of the WMI." Note that Object Pascal == Delphi == FreePascal (generally) https://github.com/RRUZ/wmi-delphi-code-creator https://github.com/RRUZ/wmi-delphi-code-creator
