CodeGear C++ Builder... True RAD;

[rspict]

It's a shit!!! It doesn't work. Download the real C++ Builder!

[codecaine]

I always loved borland studio over microsoft studio.

[TyRATnt]

If only you could download it for free without having to wait a week pirating it because no one seeds

[donzaliko]

where can i download it?

[Starforce2590]

@donzaliko Buy it.

Hi, Imagine that C not existed

Then should neither of the other language exist

Basi?, Pas?al, ?omal,...

Ex?ept Java of?ourse

[so2murad]

I have a code but I don't know how to compile and run my code in CodeGear C++ Builder could someone please help me ?

[gojiiita]

someone know where to free download c++ builder 6 personal?

I've used Borland (or is it Insprise, or CodeGear, or Embarcardero) C++ Builder since version 4, and Visual C++ since version 6. Personally I much prefer the former - even though it has suffered an identity crisis. In my humble opinion, and through my experience as a sole "developer for hire", nothing comes close C++ Builder.

And some of the components are seriously wonky, so I hear (e.g. Indy - not had the misfortune to have to use it). But despite its quirks, I often wonder what the alternative might be and feel that we might have the best of the current bunch. I've not really used VC++ but feel it might be a case of out of the frying pan, into the fire... comments welcome

[drkvogel]

I've used BCB 5 and now CodeGear/Embarcadero RAD Studio (Embarcadero used to be CodeGear used to be Borland as far as C++ Builder is concerned - always a bit worrying when companies rebrand/change hands - a bit of stability might not hurt?) for almost 7 years now and it's pretty intuitive and fast to build apps. BUT - has some odd quirks. Eg they seem to have made the help system unusable in the last release, CodeGuard seems to introduce more bugs than it catches and the proj config is a mess.

[cyther39]

the new "wxDev c++" has a RAD...

google it..

[cyther39]

wxDev c++

MingW compiler

dbest!!

[lipapipa]

if you want only code windows plataform? whats the use... booooring =)

Get this straight. Microsoft's compiler is the best out there. If you want 'RAD' with Win32 just use dialog and then export the code. I'll say again... Microsoft's compiler is the best out there.

Visual Studio is for the non-inspired programmers who want to make horrible code for horrible companies and don't plan on getting a bachelors or a masters. BCB is for people who get masters/PHD's and end up actually becoming programmers... Not just codemonkeys writing repetitive and useless code. Also, It is a very good thing to know both... But, as far as specialization and actual usage... BCB owns the crap out of anything from microsoft tbh.

I came here because I'm learning Jahshaka, but I have taken a couple programming classes... And I am positive that "high-energy" and "C++ builder" do not belong in the same sentence. =D

[SoPhoda]

What's RAD

???

[P47RICK]

Rapid application development.

[0cton]

visual basic was good

I can even say great for GUI's

but not that good unfortunatelly for writing code that does something effective and fast,

possible but not as easy as c++ fr example

a perfect language would be Visual python lol XD

of course without a widget toolkit and with a real compiler :P

[Intelext]

Borland compiler > Microsoft compiler

[SpeeBeta1]

@Intelext but there are some amazing features in Microsoft's VC++...

[bernardje]

i'm using visual studio

but i am not busy with c++

i use visual basic now :P

[thelittlealien]

Stick with Visual Studio if you want a job.

[jayx1y1x2y2]

RAD studio is 100.1% better off than visual studio coz of its rich and fast VCL compared my microsoft's old,bogus and slow MFCs

[spider853]

+1. I Think That Microsoft's Visual C++ is Much Buggy Than Borland's ... But... is Smaller.. :(

[P47RICK]

MFC is not that slow if you set the right compiler options

[softwareguy256]

GUI code is noobish. even a balding 40 year old code monkey who wishes for the glory days of punch cards can figure that out through trial and error.

[klined]

ah yes, the usual tirade by non-programmers trying to impress people

[ElectricG]

spot on there mate

[bernardje]

big fun

[alberca90]

thats the kinda stuff i wanna learn

[thar37]

that was better than the Millenium Force.

[TomandJeanne]

This video rocks!

[MNGspeed]

Really great!!!

That's the kind of action they need to show when they show hackers creating solutions with in a couple of hours. "You can not shut down the real Napster"...
