I have been asked to get Borland C++ Builder 6 to support one of our
customers. I've never used Borland products before. I'm trying to figure
out if the commmand-line tools are included in the Professional and/or
Enterprise Edition of C++ Builder 6.0, but I can't find this information
anywhere on the website. The only info I see is a link to a command-line
tools download for version 5.5 of the compiler. Does this imply the tools
are bundled with the 6.0 product?

I should note that we downloaded a trial version of C++ Builder 6 recently
(the link to the download now seems disabled). It did not include
command-line tools.

Thanks for any information you can provide.

The professional version includes Cmd line tools.
The trial doesn't as that would probably loose them sales.

Please direct your browser at http://info.borland.com/newsgroups/ and
read the newsgroup guidelines. One of them asks us not to post the
same question to different newsgroups, but to pick the most
appropriate one and just post there. Thanks!

The professional version includes Cmd line tools.

And I will just point out that while BCB6 does include command line tools,
the bpr2mak tool is buggy, and that the conversion process (from bpr to mak)
is not always painless.

If you find yourself having trouble compiling something from the command
line that compiles okay in the IDE, first get my fixmake utility
(http://www.grassvalleysoftware.com/FixMake.zip) and then make sure that all
necessary include paths are specified in project options (because the IDE
*implicitly* refers to include paths for installed component packages even
if they are not listed in project options, but there is no way for the
bpr2mak tool to know about them).

Didn't Borland release (free) the Cppbuilder commandline tools
a while back? Of course, it didn't come with an IDE, but
as far as I know, with a text editor one could do quite a bit
with the compiler. (Provided one knows the syntax by heart
as the command line tools didn't come with any help files. Smile)

They were seperate downloads, but available.
