Customer Reviews of Borland C++ Builder 6 Profesional

All the ease of VB, all the power of C++
I admit I'm a Borland devotee, having used their development products for the past ten years. And while I don't think the visual basic IDE's as bad as some people do (especially the latest version), I'd have to say Borland C++ gives you a versatility VC ++ can't touch. Borland's interface is brilliant for GUIs - you just drag your components onto a form, and then alter/optimise the code you need to. Additionally, the GUIs it creates are platform-independent, so all you have to do is recompile to get your program working on another platform. The compiler itself is incredibly fast - this is definitely the best RAD environment available for C++, and I'd say the tool of choice for any serious professional developer. (Having said all this, Borland's eagerly awaited C++ Builder 2006 is now available, although not yet via Amazon.)

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.

the standard
for building C++ programs in Windows, this is the best route for fast program development in a visual IDE.
