Some helpful XE2 info from our friends at DevExpress.
- DevExpress's
popular VCL suite will be updated for XE2 including 64bit Delphi! Works today, beta soon. And since it's working now, Julian predicts they will pre-release the 64bit code before official release.
- They are evaluating the new VCL and FireMonkey LiveBindings approach for binding UI and graphic objects to data
- They are evaluating FireMonkey - would be exciting to see what they would do with
QuantumGrid in Firemonkey's GPU based graphics, effects, and animation.
- As XE2 support is added DevExpress will be dropping support for 2009 (and earlier). So will be a great time to upgrade to XE2.
