While many were expecting the 10.3 release by now, it should now be available towards the end of 2018. If that means better quality, I’m all for it [WayBack]: RAD Studio August 2018 Roadmap – Embarcadero Community.
The slides are still in image form (I never understood the lack of PDF), but luckily there is [WayBack] August 2018 Roadmap Commentary from Product Management – Community Blogs – Embarcadero Community.
The 10.3 feature I like most is the work on records: default constructors, destructors and copy operators. This will lead the way for nullable types, on which I gave a session in 2009 on the work I did in the 2007-2009 timeframe on non-generic nullable types, and Jim on generic nullable types:
- [WayBack] 26916 Nullable Types with Generics from Delphi Live! 2009
- [WayBack] Conferences/2009/DelphiLive.2009/Nullable-types-in-Delphi-Win32/Delphi-classic at master · jpluimers/Conferences · GitHub
- [WayBack] Conferences/2009/DelphiLive.2009/Nullable-types-in-Delphi-Win32/Delphi-generic at master · jpluimers/Conferences · GitHub
I never got around to follow up on Reminder: rebuild my Nullable Types based on Class Operators in Delphi, so hopefully the Delphi team will deliver that next year.
