Yeah, after it's too late, I finally realized that is what Borland was doing
(or trying to do) with C++ Builder. They were letting you use C++ to build
native software that used .NET-style components.

Yes, I remember the C++ Builder. It was more easy than Visual C++ and
MFC. It was like Delphi or .NET, with components drag-and-drop, etc.
and code was written in C++ (while Delphi code was Pascal-based, an OO
version of Pascal).

But, if I recall correctly, is one of the leaders of C# and .NET team
(Anders Hejlsberg) the inventor of Delphi?

He's doing a great job with C# and .NET, IMHO.
