Justified moaning?, I like to think so.

Well, what a nice day for packing it all in and taking up gardening.

I've used Delphi for over 10 years, I'm using 2007 for Win32 now, under RAD
Studio. I don't do .NET, just Win 32. I don't do Vista, just XP. I now think
RAD means 'Rapid Application Decline'.

When I lose a couple of hours work because the IDE just bombs out because it
didn't like something I typed, I think...

And when the IDE slows right down after a few hours for no apparent reason I
restart Delphi and I think...

And when the project won't compile because it has DEBUG and RELEASE defined
(yes, I did open another project and come back to the first one), I think...

And when I have a script set up in my 'SendTo' folder to do a reliable DCC32
release build and launching it via the File Browser stops working after a
period of working reliably, I restart the IDE and think...

And when something as basic as a DBCtrlGrid can't draw a checkbox for
multiple records and my customer thinks I'm a tosser for not noticing the
fact, I think...

And when I feel the need to sit here telling no-one in particular about it,
I think...

Have a nice weekend everyone :)
