Ok i wish it does. I do not want to make you feel bad, but this is the
summary of what is going on. BC++ Builder has a RAD like that of VB only
that it is 1000 times better, because it has components for anything.
Also its compiler is highly ANSI C++ compliant. In contrary VC++ IDE is
ancient, it has no RAD. Also VC++'s compiler is broken for ANSI C++. For
example the following code i think it will not compile:
=20
#include <iostream>
=20
int main()
{
for(int i=3D0; i<5; i++)
std::cout<<i;
=20
std::cout<<std::endl;
=20
for(int i=3D0; i<5; i++)
std::cout<<"It doesn't compile!\n";
}
=20
=20
That's my last email on this issue.

Bollocks I say lol ;)
If Borland had wanted me to buy their version (which I was going to do)
they shouldn't have had that free command line tools as their trial
download. It reflected bad on them, so I went and got VC++ just to spite
them lol.
And I've not regretted it - It does what I need it to do, and it does it
well.

Sorted.

In ANSI C++ cout is defined in the std namespace, which you can declare there by using namespace std; declaration and use cout alone. But even those for loops will not compile in VC++ 6. The compiler is *broken*. It doesn't support almost at all templates, not the proper ANSI C++ header files, e.t.c.. =20 The code that i sent you is ANSI C++, is not using any Borland C++ specific extensions. =20 =20 Ioannis =20 * Ioannis Vranos * Programming pages: http://www.noicys.f2s.com <http://www.noicys.f2s.com/>=20 * Alternative URL: http://run.to/noicys -----Original Message----- From: dev...@li...

IMHO you should have bought Borland C++ Builder. That way you don't have = to deal the command line. AFAIK the Borland compiler is the most = standards compliant compiler available.
