I always liked C++ Builder since Borland days
I preferred Delphi myself… Got sucked in by all the marketing…
Yeah, Delphi was the original RAD. Borland made C++Builder just to lure C++ programmers who don't want to learn Pascal (the component library, VCL, shared by both C++Builder and Delphi was actually written in Object Pascal).
Visual Basic? Powerbuildwr?
@syousef: Right, they predate Delphi by quite some years. I meant Delphi was the original RAD tool of Borland that was later rebadged as C++Builder; not that it was the first in history :).
meh, GUI schmui.
It all started with Logo :-)
Although many a 40yo virgin said don't even try if you can't write it in VI
Vi? Luxury! Punch cards! That's how you did it in my day!
(Actually i'm too young for that, but it's a joke, so roll with it).
Native Win apps FTW!
but you can run win 10 on Raspberry Pi - it's like so hip & happening man!
Vintage, I just found my oooooold Borland C++ 5 box in storage, man I miss those days but it was also riddled with issues (at least the initial boxed version of v5). I got into Delphi before moving to Visual Studio 5 and later 6.
Still got my Borland C++ for OS/2 on the shelf…
Awesome !!!
I used to love Turbo C++.
From Wikipedia:
Turbo C++ v1.01 and Turbo C v2.01 can be downloaded, free of charge, from Borland's Antique Software website.
Dev C++ is the best
this deal only a couple of decades too late.
Upgrade was costlier than new licence, it's manipulation of words and Power of Free that attracts people. It was a starter edition, which most companies will give FREE anyway.
404 error
this is good for hoarding.
doesnt microsoft offer visual studio community version for free? what is the difference between them?
gcc and vim or nothing! :P
I always liked C++ Builder since Borland days. Still note that you can only develop 32-bit Windows applications (no 64-bit, no MacOS/iOS/Android) with the starter edition. With such limitations Microsoft Visual Studio Express (always free) looks like the better choice if I'm not missing anything.
