Sourcetrail support for Delphi

[Jacek Laskowski 57]

Very interesting tool!

 

 

Maybe Emba should consider writing a plugin to support Delphi?

Emba does not contribute to open source - especially not GPL

Wow, i was playing with this tool now for an hour or so, using a large c++ project. Amazing work

Looking at other companies in the field, it seemed that to make more money, our only option was making our licenses more and more expensive, which in turn would limit our audience to fewer developers. We always dismissed the idea because we started to make Sourcetrail to benefit as many developers as possible and not to be a premium product for a few people in a handful of companies.

Also Wow. Bold move and I hope it turns out good for them.

I can't help but think of Borland who went for the exact opposite solution (remember Inprise?) and almost killed Delphi in the process. And we're still paying the price for that fiasco - literally.

What about LLVM/Clang?

LLVM is under a BSD-like licence not GPL. And using other people work is quite the opposite of contribute to it.

I know. I thought that Emba contributed some code to LLVM/Clang.

Offtopic: I think we should create some short macro that would mean "whatever company that owns Delphi at the moment"

Yes but now it's more like "Idera as Embarcadero" typecast
