I just discovered this thread as I also have to combine Julia and Delphi. However, I use [Lazarus](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazarus_(software)) instead of Delphi because I prefer OpenSource.

For my use case Lazarus is great to create a proper platform-independent GUI but it lacks scientific capabilities like e.g. machine learning. So my intention is to use Julia for the scientific parts, compile this code as a library (a DLL under Windows) and then use that DLL for Lazarus.

If anybody has the same needs, you might be interested in the solution I found so far in [this thread](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/step-by-step-instruction-and-example-how-to-create-standalone-applications-for-windows-with-a-g-ui/128274).
