The VS C++ developer said : "C++ will die in the windows application
development world if I can't develop the GUI easily in VS."

The VS Team said: "It is clear that you mostly develop native code
applications", "After reviewing the data, our team has decided to refine
the product direction. After reviewing the data, our team has decided to
refine the product direction. Moving forward we will increase our support
for native development tools"


How about Delphi ?

GUI -- VCL is a little old, need fresh new GUI VCLs. Need help programmers
build Perfect GUI without too much code.
Native Code -- Yes, please put more resource on Native Code, such as
Unicode, Fast String functions etc
(The HELP always let me select .NET topic or
Win32 Topic every time, I hate this, it does not remember I do not use
NET )
