Which Object Pascal compiler compiles these instructions (Generics) if not Delphi ?
Var
List : TList<String>;
Begin
List : TList<String>.Create;
End;
Which Pascal Object compiler compiles Anonymous Methods ?
Which Pascal Object compiler compiles Class Helpers ?
Which Object pascal compiler builds Class Attributes and inserts it into RTTI ?
And the form and syntax that makes Delphi ?
Unlike Eclipse which allows editing of PHP, JAVA, and other languages allowing perspective, the Delphi IDE only fits Delphi itself, so the Delphi IDE is for itself, and cannot be used for other languages.
Soon Delphi is Language + Compiler + IDE
Object pascal is the language that originated the Delphi, until more or less the Delphi 7, after that it was called Delphi Language for a while, and recently the Embarcadero called again the language of Object Pascal, but also the flame of Delphi, ie there seems to be no consensus.
So it is not wrong to call the language of Delphi as well as it cannot be considered as an error to call Object Pascal from where everything originated.
The question that won’t shut up: the accent is Délfi or Délfai? :P

We can say that Delphi is an IDE and the version (after 7) of Objectpascal used with the Delphi compiler is a modified Fork and I believe that this Fork has been renamed Delphi, so both carry the same name, similar to the situation of Webkit (safari) and Blink (Chrome). I do not have the source of this information and it may be wrong, but if I succeed I will try to post an answer :)

pascal exists since 1970, here comes Delphi 35 years later and uses the language and its compiler, makes some modifications, and the language becomes called Delphi? Ava

@Eduardoseixas I think Pascal is one thing and Objectpascal is another. And from what I’m reading, it actually seems that the language is Objectpascal and it was the users who started giving this name, the problem is that I can’t find official source.

@rray If this is serious I will search kk, although old magazines may have a lot of wrong information. Their site lacks sources (a wiki).

@Guilhermenascimento is very serious, in the first chapters must have this information, I believe.
