Discovering Delphi - Delphi Related Links

Borland International

Borland's Delphi Page: Delphi's home page. Full of the latest information, technical documents, update downloads, and other official information direct from Borland.

The Borland Newsgroups: Borland has changed their forums into newsgroups, so they are a little easier to access now, but a lot easier to use.. There are currently 17 newsgroups dealing with individual areas of Delphi programming. There are also dozens of other newsgroups dealing with other languages, such as C++ Builder, IntraBuilder, etc.

Delphi Magazines nad Newsletters

UNDU - The Unofficial Newsletter of Delphi Users: My favorite online reference. Written by Robert Vivrette, and hosted by the good people at Informant Communications Group, UNDU is free for everyone on the web. A new issue is posted every 1 - 2 months, full of tips & tricks and product reviews.

Delphi Developer Journal: A small but quality publication from the Cobb group. They have several sample articles online covering very useful topics.

Delphi Informant: In addition to the standard tips and tricks, this magazine covers applications of Delphi programming in-depth.

Great Delphi Web Sites


The Delphi Deli: This is what Delphi32.com should have been. This site is packed full of components, tips, and other stuff, with an interesting theme. Always updated regularly, so you can find components for the newest programming topics.

The Delphi Resource Center - Delphi32.com: An incredible sight, with references to tons of Delphi web pages. The best thing on this sight, however, is its components page, with links to hundreds of VCL components on the web, all organized and catagorized for easy finding. The only problem is that the site isn't updated very often, so if you need something new (ex. anything specifically for Delphi 3), you are best of checking on of the other sites, I recommend the Delphi Deli.

The Delphi Bug Lists: The most complete listing of Delphi bugs, versions 1, 2, and 3. This page is updated often and always has the most recently discovered bugs. In many cases, fixes or work-arounds are also listed. A must-visit if you just can't figure out why your program isn't working correctly. Managed by Reinier Sterkenburg.

The Delphi 3 Information Page: Now that Delphi 3 has finally been released, this site doesn't have much to offer since most of the information is now on Borland's page. However, there is a document on porting between Delphi 2 and 3 that you might want to look at. And when Delphi 4 gets close, I'm sure this will once again be the best source of information, as it was for Delphi 3.

Dr. Bob's Delphi Clinic: I find this site most useful for it's press releases. While it's mostly a re-hash of what Borland has posted here & there, the nice part is it is all in 1 easy-to-find place.

Other Delphi Links

The Microsoft Developers Network (MSDN) Online: Ok, Ok. This is not a Delphi page (in fact, there probably isn't a single reference to Delphi on the entire site). BUT, when you need to take your Delphi application a little bit further, and start making some Windows API calls, this place is full of information, including all of the official documentation for Windows 95 and NT and all of the DLL's that come along with it. Plus a load of other development stuff (ActiveX, DirectX, etc.). This has to be one of the most important links for my day to day programming right now.



Is your sight missing here? Do you think it should be here? If so, go to the submissions page and follow the directions on how to submit your page to be linked-to here. I'll link to any Delphi page I think others would find of value. However, if your page is extremely good, I'll give it special attention.
