Talk:Visual Component Library

Is there anything visual about the VCL? Are any components noteworthy enough to be discussed on Wikipedia? Is the VCL one library, and if so, is it finished?

Talk:Visual Component Library

What's it all about?

Is there anything visual about the VCL? Are any components noteworthy enough to be discussed on Wikipedia? Is the VCL one library, and if so, is it finished? Is there a catalog for it? D021317c 23:53, 6 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

VCL contains all the basic UI classes - things like forms, buttons, listboxes, etc. Barry Kelly (talk) 17:20, 21 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

TObject

Presently, the article states that: "The VCL forms an object hierarchy where all other objects inherit or indirectly inherit the TObject class" Is this actually true? I always thought that TObject is the root class in object model of Component Pascal, and VCL is a separate library which builds on that, with TComponent being its root class. -- int19h (talk) 11:11, 29 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

The VCL is part of Delphi, aka Object Pascal. It's not Component Pascal. The root of Delphi's inheritance hierarchy is indeed TObject.Barry Kelly (talk) 17:21, 21 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
The vcl though has its own rootclass: Tcomponent which indeed is derived of Tobject. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.84.219.105 (talk) 19:52, 5 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

.NET Modeled after VCL

The last claim on this page seems extremely dubious to me, I don't know where it came from, I'd like to see a reference. .NET is much closer to java than VCL, but correct me if I"m wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by D2brothe (talkcontribs) 18:03, 18 February 2009 (UTC) Think of Winforms and Anders Heijlsberg. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.159.30.170 (talk) 15:02, 7 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Others

The article says "There is a large number of free and commercial component packages. Among them are JEDI, TMS, Developer Express, Mitov Software, Raize Software, TurboPower, IOComp, SDL, DA-SOFT Technologies and many others."

TurboPower stopped development of their product (Orpheus) many years ago. They released it to the public domain, but I think it has ceased being supported. Embarcadero bought Raize Software tools and includes it for free, Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 16:48, 24 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
