Was it written in, or ported from, Delphi?
- alternatetwo 5y agoHas to be ported, since Delphi doesn't generate PDB7's. Or at least written by someone familiar/used to Delphi, since Age of Empires utility classes are also prefixed with T, but the game was obviously written in Visual Studio - but some dev tools were written in Delphi, so somebody seems to have taken the naming scheme from there in that case.
- pjmlp 5y agoBorland C++ frameworks used the same coding conventions as Turbo Pascal/Delphi. They still use them.
- mike_san 5y agoyep, this is it. The project started out in Delphi, but I had to port it to C to integrate with the Windows Build. For some reason they didn't want to include Delphi tooling in the Windows build.
