Looks really interesting. I am aware of the massive Delphi dll, but it's still better than having no upgrade path at all (like VB6) in my opinion. Hi, Thanks for pointing me to ShineOn.

If you distribute Delphi.net components you also have to include that massive DLL. Chrome only uses the classic Microsoft .net API, and I must say that it is VERY rich. If you are porting Delphi code with lot's of VCL calls you can have a look at ShineOn. ShineOn is a opensource project that tries to make a pure .net alternative for VCL. It is written in Chrome and most of the known Delphi libs are implemented now.
