Talk:C++Builder

Adding a See also section[edit]

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:

Template:Infobox Software[edit]

I added an {{Infobox Software}} template to C++Builder. 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)[reply]

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

Spelling[edit]

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)[reply]

C# Builder not popular RAD tool?[edit]

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

Fight the hype![edit]

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)[reply]

Relationship to RAD Studio?[edit]

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)[reply]

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[edit]

The Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use require that editors disclose their "employer, client, and affiliation" with respect to any paid contribution; see WP:PAID. For advice about reviewing paid contributions, see WP:COIRESPONSE.

ildrummer (talk · contribs) has been paid by Embarcadero Technologies on their behalf. Their editing has included contributions to this article. http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/

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)[reply]
