The VCL was release with the first version of Delphi. So which is better, and which to use? There isn’t a straightforward answer, but instead I can tell you the advantages of each, and you can make an educated choice for your next project. The reason is the VCL is a mature framework, while FireMonkey has been going through a lot of growth the past few versions (although it has stabilized a lot recently, and is reaching a more mature status.) The VCL gets new components, features and bug fixes frequently, but maybe not as often as FireMonkey.
Just recently in Marco’s Windows 10 Webinar he said “ VCL is the best library for Windows desktop development and fully embraces Windows 10.” As long as there is Windows and the Windows API, there will be VCL. The VCL (or Visual Component Library) is NOT depreciated, nor will it be any time soon. The first is easy to answer, the other two are a little harder.
