What's the difference between Delphi and Rad Studio?

I can't find a feature comparison list. I believe they can both can create native unmanaged code, right? Does Delphi by itself feature RAD?

Solution

  • Yes. Both Delphi and RAD Studio contain the IDE and Delphi itself, so they both create the same unmanaged native code.

    RAD Studio includes other product lines as well (XE2, for instance, included C++Builder, HTML5 Builder and Delphi Prism in addition to Delphi itself). The Delphi product simply included Delphi. Both products lines, though, use the same IDE for Delphi (and C++Builder, in the case of RAD Studio).
