I once had a teacher who said the only stupid question is one not asked, but I think you just proved her wrong. I don't understand why people bother asking questions like this. First, if you really did read all of the above, how did you manage to miss the answer? Borland doesn't have any plans to drop C++Builder. Second, even if they did plan to drop it, do you think they'd go out of their way to publicize it? -- Gillmer J.

It's because Borland is going to concentrate all its resources on Linux-based compilers as opposed to Windows-based compilers. BCB 6 is the last of the BCB packages. Oh, right, because of the immense profitability of commercial software in the Linux sector... -- Bill -------- People have a right to their own cultures -- even Americans.

(eom) Wow, that was definitely a blaze of wisdom...or maybe someone just lit a match after eating mexican. Just from where I sit, I'd say there isn't a BCB 7 yet because the cycle as we observed it went D7 > C#B > ___, and we haven't seen what ___ is yet. Why does crap like this keep bobbing up? You guys are eating too much fiber. Go back and read a few year's worth of posts.

Hear! Hear! Compliance with the existing standard has to be the first goal, before resources can be spared for other ventures. Cheers, Daniel.

ISO will not change it any. What's the point? It is a good standard, and should be recognised. It was created with the intent of becoming an ISO standard, so that others would respect and implement it. MS could have done this work purely as an internal project, but chose to put it before the standards bodies for approval. Indeed, they worked with other partners on the ECMA panel to make it the best possible standard for portable code, with features put in to support non-MS implementations of the CLR (such as support for 32 bit wchar_t types on Posix implementations) Given it is already an ECMA standard, we could leave it there. But ISO is seen as 'the gold standard' of standards, and was always the goal. I see no reason to deny that standard, once we acknowledge that this is a language base-on/inspired by C++, rather than another version of C++ itself. -- AlisdairM(TeamB) Back to top Martin Fensome Guest Posted: Mon Feb 13, 2006 11:03 pm    Post subject: Re: Best Installer?
