Here Comes Tiburon,Tiburon来了！

Probably the biggest feature — and the one that you’ve likely heard the most about — is Unicode. Tiburon will be a completely Unicodified (yes, I’ll take credit for making up that word ) product. That means every single part of it will be based on and use UnicodeString as the default string. That means everywhere: compiler, RTL, VCL, IDE, COM, dbExpress, everything.

But Unicode isn’t the only feature in the box — far from it. In the coming weeks, you’ll be seeing lots information about all the cool stuff coming in Tiburon. Stuff like new VCL components, a really cool new DataSnap framework (that still works with your existing DataSnap applications), a new COM and ActiveX architecture, new language features like Generics and Anonymous Methods, IDE enhancements, and much more. You can get the first taste on David I’s blog. There will be videos and articles online, as well as events around the world demonstrating the product.

So keep your eyes open, and take a look at what we’ve been up to for the past year or so. If you have questions, please feel free to comment here. I’ll answer emails if you like, but a conversation here on the blog would be visible to everyone.
