I'm looking at upgrading the Borland/Codegear/Embarcadero C++ builder suite we use for some of our code. I would like to see 64-bit support but that doesn't seem to be a feature in the 2009 edition. I swear I saw a roadmap suggesting that there would be a new release in mid-2009 which would include x64, but now that document is lost to...
A few years ago C++ Builder from Borland with its excellent VCL gui library and its gui designer was the best IDE for C++ development on Windows. Once beloved, for a couple of years now Builder has been losing users steadily. What do you think are the biggest mistakes Borland/Inprise/CodeGear/Embarcadero has made? ...
I have been stuggling to get the MSBuild to successfully build my .dproj file for the last few days on a build machine. First, I needed the EnvOptions.proj file from the developer's machine, which got me clear of the missing system.pas file, but now I am getting a compile error for a missing .dcu C:\Program Files\CodeGear\RAD Studio...

Can somebody tell us how the Delphi community evolved? Michael again? Nick? Anybody else? Question reopened. The OP comment below helps explain the reason why...
Is VCL dead, or does it have a future as a GUI library? As CLX ended, is there any chance for cross-platform support in future releases? I've had to do some work with legacy app that uses Borland's VCL(BCB6). Now that new features have to be implemented, it's necessary to revalue alternatives. Whether to stick with VCL or migrate to som...

Hi, We are trying to split up our monolithic EXE into a combination of an EXE and several packages. So far, we have one package that we're trying to use, and when running the EXE Codeguard shows the following error on startup: CG Error Two different CRTLDLLs are loaded. CG might report false errors (C:\Windows\system32\CC32100MT.DLL)...
I'm a newbie at using the STL Algorithms and am currently stuck on a syntax error. My overall goal of this is to filter the source list like you would using Linq in c#. There may be other ways to do this in C++, but I need to understand how to use algorithms. My user-defined function object to use as my function adapter is struct is...
