Talk:C++Builder

Adding a See also section
I was looking this page a few months ago because I wanted a similar application but free software. I do not know how to add to this page:

See Also WxDev-C++

It can be useful for some people looking for a free integrated development environment similar to C++ builder. unsigned comment 05:51, 14 November 2006 130.206.92.100


 * I added the See also section. (See: WP:LAYOUT; it's "See also" rather than "See Also".) --Teratornis 20:02, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Template:Infobox Software
I added an Infobox Software template to. I could not determine the values for these fields in the template:

latest_release_version = | latest_release_date = |

I am asking anyone with knowledge of this product to complete those fields. Thanks. --Teratornis 21:02, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Done. --79.196.20.78 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 21:15, 15 January 2009 (UTC).

Spelling
According to all of the official images and literature from the product developer (Borland and now CodeGear), the name of the product is C++Builder, with no space between "C++" and "Builder". I see that most references to the product name in this article insert the space. Is there a reason for this or is this a typing mistake? Notbyworks 21:56, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

C# Builder not popular RAD tool?
This article states:

"Other popular visual RAD tools include Delphi, JBuilder and C# Builder from Borland, and Visual Basic from Microsoft."

While the article on CSharpBuilder states this tool is not popular and is not supported:

"C#Builder's functionality has since been incorporated into Borland's Delphi and C#Builder is no longer developed as a separate application."

Which is true? --Stardancer 06:52, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

main(1) { int x,y avg; printif("please enter x and y:\n"); scanf("%d%d",&x,&y); avg=(x+y)/2 printf("the avg=%d",avg); —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.135.105.66 (talk) 02:38, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
 * 1) include


 * C++ Builder 5-6 was better, because faster and stable. Your article maybe old. Wikipedia prefer fresh and current state.--93.80.66.232 (talk) 20:52, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

Fight the hype!
Article contains too much hype. Some one should do something about it. "C++Builder includes tools that allow true drag-and-drop visual development, making programming easier by incorporating a WYSIWYG GUI builder into its IDE." Oh, really? I thought they only provide the false drag and drop, and make development really tough. BS like that must be deleted/edited to fit the style of article, and not infomercial (a kind of comercial that tries to make you think it is a useful information, and not yet another hype). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.139.8.77 (talk) 08:18, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Relationship to RAD Studio?
If C++Builder includes a development environment, which can use most components built with Delphi... What is RAD Studio? Some clarification would be welcome. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.206.162.148 (talk) 05:03, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi.


 * The story of C++ Builder, Delphi and RAD Studio is very similar to the story of Visual C++, Visual Basic and Visual Studio. (In fact, I suspect they may be cause and effect.) Once upon a time, when Borland was in charge of development, it only developed C++ Builder and Delphi, two separate but highly compatible development tools. They were two language-specific IDEs. I am not sure who came up with the idea of RAD Studio; CodeGear or Embarcadero. But RAD Studio is like Visual Studio today. RAD Studio supports both C++ Builder and Delphi languages. Buying RAD Studio is like buying both Delphi and C++ Builder. Only buying the two separately costs €11,937.60, while buying only RAD Studio costs €6,715.20. These prices, of course, do not include subscription costs.

Revising release history
I'm adding more detail to the release feature lists and version history. Might remove the version history table altogether once those dates are noted in each release's section. Ildrummer (talk) 00:08, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
