Delphi For Visual Studio?
The old order changeth...?

According to the French language technology journal, Le Monde Informatique, Code Gear (the newly formed company which will henceforth develop the Borland programming languages), plans to migrate Delphi into Visual Studio.

This, says the journal, signals the end of the Borland developer Studio as a standalone IDE (“ l’arrêt de Delphi en tant qu’IDE autonome”). Delphi will continue to target both Win32 and .NET and will also support its Visual Class Library (VCL).

Update: (2nd Dec’ 06) Code Gear denies the above, saying that the company does not plan to move its development tools to VS. So where did the story originate? I shall watch developments keenly...
