In this video we take a look at the Microsoft Speech API, in particular the text to speech facilities. And we create a small application that can speak some text in a memo control

Delphi and C++ are very different programming languages. Delphi is based on Object Pascal and is usually easier to use and understand but C++ is much more common. The short answer is Delphi and C++ are not compatible, the long answer is very long an complicated.

It all depends which part of the world you live in. I live in Cape Town, South Africa and C++ programmers are rare here. Being multi-skilled is a matter of survival anywhere in the world these days. :-)

Then you aren't living in the real world. The number of C++ programmers are orders of magnitude greater than the numbers of Delphi programmers.

For every 1 Delphi Programmer I've met, I've met 100 C++ programmers.

Then again, why limit yourself to only 1 language? I would never call myself a "Delphi programmer" or a C++ programmer". I'm a

"programmer" who knows both those languages (and more...Assembler, Java, Fortran, Perl....).

As a Delphi developer, I wouldn't say that C++ is used by greater number of programmers. I would say that CodeGear C++ and Codegear Delphi (which use the same VCL) are about the same level of difficulty to learn and write and are indeed compatible with each other.

[J2897]

Was that C++? Or how similar to C++ is Delphi? Are they both compatible with each other or not?

Thx.
