Antonio,
That person may be a troll, but lots of people are curious about the future of products they use. My point is that they should really focus on today. No one knows what tomorrow will bring. I've worked in one vertical market for 24 + years ( since dbase II runtime for CP/M ) and I've seen a lot of competitors come and go. I've also seen companies promise features in their software that they never deliver.
My point is simple. Evaluate the product as it exists RIGHT NOW, and if it provides the solution you need today, that is the only point that matters.
Obviously, many people have found that Five Win works for them in developing the applications their clients need today. No one knows what those needs will be in the future, but we can certainly assume that as the needs are presented, solutions may well be found with our existing tools ( Five Win, xHarbour/Harbour, and others ) as they are enhanced over time.
Borland announced they were uniting their programs into a studio ( Delphi, C++ Builder, etc ) and then when it came time to ship, they couldn't get the C++ Builder to work properly. The idea was great, but the reality wasn't realized. Apparently they hadn't cleaned up old bugs in Delphi either, so it will be awhile before that software can be used for applications reliably.
Anyway, my point is that the product works for us today and we don't need to worry about the future !
Heck the majority of my clients are still running the old Clipper DOS application, and I released the windows version 6 years ago ...
