1 stars (Borland is now dead) - I've been a Borland C/C++ programmer since Turbo C 2.0 and for years it's been the best compiler. Not now. I purchased both Borland C++ Builder 6 and Microsoft Visual C++.NET - the Visual C++ box weighed approx 6 times that of Borland's box (and although weight don't make a compiler, it's an indicator of the vendor's features and support). Visual C++ gives you more bang for the buck but I don't like Microsoft's managed .NET direction. Looks like it's time to seek a Linux solution! 1 stars (Sad just plain sad) - I was excited to come back to Borland. I remember that day's under Turbo C++. They truly had a superior product then first of it was fast. If you had to debug with in the class libraries you could step into them and find out where the problem was. What I have found with Borland today that scares me is it's based around Pascal. That is just not smart! It adds additional complexity to debugging. Try to step into it. I also could not understand why CBuilder violates some OOP OOD concepts through public member variables except when absolutely nessecary. I understand why now. This is a dangerous path...take it at your own risk. Pray that you never have to resolve a serious low level soft ware problem with this. It looks like it will have some serious teeth to bite with. I would have give this zero but the option wasn't available. Microsoft truly has a better product than this. And I was truly excited to see what new ideas Borland had come up with when I came back to this tool set. Now I'm doing everything in my power to get this out of here. 2 stars (Half Useful) - This was my first C++ compiler. It was good to learn on, however once you get into advanced features this compiler is not worth the money. Supposedly this version supports partial specialization, however it doesn't work at all (Or maybe just mine doesn't. HUGE problem, for me anyway. It somehow handles std::iterator_traits however. Odd.) There i... Borland International :: C :: Programming Languages :: Computer software (programs) :: :: Borland C++ Builder 6 Personal
5 stars (Best database development system for xbase user) - I am extremely impressed and satified by the capability, simplicity, power, magic and genius of the Borland Delphi products. I have used Visual dBASE, Visual Foxpro, Visual Basic, Access and Visual Objects, and none of these products have the simplicity and power of this amazing product from Borland. Moreover, this product dramatically reduced my programming time. Maintenance of a Delphi program is also a snap. For example, I wrote a DOS business invoicing and inventory program using Clipper in 3 weeks time, but the same program rewritten using Delphi was accomplished in only 3 hours. This was made possible because of the power of the Delphi database components and user interface components. The finished product is neat and incredibly fast. In the Clipper old days, I spent most of my time writing codes, now I have much more time to share with my family and friends, and enjoying other things life has to offer, thanks to Delphi. This is the programming environment I always dreamed of. The beauty and elegance of Delphi surpasses anything I have seen and tried. Naturally, there is no free lunch for anything in life, there is a steep learning curve. Delphi is the Clipper for the 2000's and more! 2 stars (Don't believe the hype!!!!) - I was excited at the prospect of getting this product. I own Delphi5, and the idea of an upgrade that I could use to support my existing code as well as upgrade to .net in future or even (horror of horrors leave Delphi and Switch to C#) seemed great, talk about covering all your bases. The new features sounded sensible too. Synch editing (where changing a single identifier in a selection changes all the others) seemed a great idea. Having always stuck with Borland in the past I was expecting something professional and polished, sadly I think Borland have lost the plot. D2005 tries to be a Jack of all Trades and ends up being a master of none. The user interface is clutter...

1 stars (The old grey mare isn't what she used to be.) - I was looking forward to using Borland again. I remember when they led the industry with their innovative IDE concepts. Well they haven't changed much since then. Of the three IDE platforms that I have used (Qt, Microsoft's Visual C++.net and Borland C++ Builder and VI) this comes in second to last. Come on Borland get back into the saddle. There are other annoying factors as well. Rebuilding each and every time I choose to run in debug, the depth of the class architecture, not to mention what has already been said. Sorry Borland... I was really hoping to say something quite different. 5 stars (the standard) - for building C++ programs in Windows, this is the best route for fast program development in a visual IDE. 1 stars (A tragically flawed alternative to Microsoft Visual Studio) - The idea was great. Instead of doing RAD in VB, do RAD using C++ !! Unfortunately, the execution is deeply flawed. Based on Borlands Pascal / Delphi product, it uses many of the Pascal components that ship with Delphi. It therefore suffers from irritating Pascalisms. Add to this an unstable and buggy IDE ( just read the complaints on Borlands own c++builder forums ) and a product that is hamstrung by a small and poorly funded development team, and you have a tragically and deeply flawed implementation of an alternative to VB. To make matters worse, Borland have effectively increased the price. Many features have been shifted into the Enterprise edition. Borland seem to have effectively abandoned this product in favour of Delphi ( cash cow ) and JBuilder ( a strong contender in the Java RAD field ) Try this if you like. ( Borland have a download able trial somehere on their vast and poorly organised site ) Then weep for what might have been and move on to Visual Studio .NET ...
