 # Supported Compilers for OWLNext
-This page documents the compilers supported in each release series of OWLNext. Note that newer releases of OWLNext gradually drop support for older compilers, so if you are upgrading from OWL and Borland C++, then see our [recommended step-by-step approach](Upgrading_from_OWL/#recommended-step-by-step-approach) to get to the latest release. Also note that compiler support is gradually added throughout the support cycle for a release series, so to get the latest compiler support, you should preferably use the latest update for the version listed. You can find the full version history in [OWLNext Releases](OWLNext_Stable_Releases).

 ### Borland C++

-Since OWLNext 6.32, only version 5.5 of the Borland C++ compiler has been supported, and in OWLNext 6.40, support for Borland C++ was dropped altogether. If you want to continue using the Borland C++ 5.02 IDE, we recommend you install the [Tools55](Tools) add-on and the freely available [Borland C++ 5.5](Tools) compiler update. However, for OWLNext 6.40 and later, you need a modern compiler. You can still use the Borland C++ IDE as a code and resource editor, if you prefer.
