RAD Studio XE2 is a highly productive development environment for the popular Delphi, C++ and PHP programming languages. The extensive Embarcadero developer community is the second largest Windows developer community in the world after Microsoft.<\/p>\n \u201cThe world for Windows developers is changing. Every month Windows developers are facing an increasing demand for Mac and Mobile, and at the same time they are expected to raise the bar on user experience and interoperability.\u201d said Michael Swindell, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Products at Embarcadero. \u201cDevelopers need tools to help them deliver on these new demands without materially increasing timelines and budgets. We\u2019re proud that RAD Studio XE2 is helping Windows developers tame these pressures and develop rich native applications across multiple platforms from a single codebase. And this is the key driver behind Delphi and C++Builder\u2019s impressive growth.\u201d<\/p>\n According to a recent Forrester report, nearly 50 percent of businesses in North America and Western Europe now issue Mac computers in the workplace, and 27 percent of those companies offer support for the iPad. It\u2019s clear that Apple is becoming an important factor in the Enterprise, and developers must address that as they build business applications. RAD Studio\u2019s cross platform development capabilities address the rapidly growing Mac and iOS markets, which enables developers to reach an additional 10 to 15 percent of the Desktop market with minimal additional development cost. Developers using RAD Studio can write an application once and compile to both Windows and Mac \u2013 no need for a separate development team using different development tools or duplicating effort to create Windows and Mac versions of an application.<\/p>\n In fall 2011, Embarcadero hosted a RAD Studio XE2 world launch tour, which brought the Delphi developer community together in countries across North America, APAC and EMEA. Over three months, more than 70 events were held in 30 countries with almost 10,000 registered. The events showcased the new features of both RAD Studio XE2 and FireMonkey, and provided the community with a chance to learn, connect, and share their experiences with RAD Studio.
