Yes, and no. C++ is a much more complex language to support than Delphi/Pascal is, so Embarcadero has to take longer and use more resources to support C++Builder, so it tends to lag behind Delphi in terms of new developments. That, and C++Builder was EOL'ed back in 2002/2003 and took a few years to be revived in RAD Studio (when it was known as BDS instead).

Because they tend to be easier to work with, and because Delphi Pascal code can usually be used in C++Builder as-is, or they are fairly easily translatable to C++.

On the other hand, I am primarily a C++Builder user (I use Delphi only for developing Indy, and for small projects), so I make sure that Indy supports C++Builder as best I can.
