Can you compile and run code with such a beast? Does it moderately work, or can you just look at some of the features that will be forthcoming?

Does it moderately work, or can you just look at some of the features that will be forthcoming? From what we've seen in the demos, you can compile and run code. You may run into some issues with very specific C++ constructs, but for general use, it's ok.

From what I've heard from some of the BorCon attendees (who received a preview version), it slices, it dices, it makes mounds and mounds of Julienne fries. It also edits, compiles, links and debugs better than BCB 6. And Borland's working to make it even better. I like that!

From LICENSE.TXT: *** NOTE: The Product includes certain Preview Technology related to the Product's C++ and C functionality that is being provided subject to some restrictions and limitations. "Preview Technology" means those programs, modules, libraries, help files and other files required for, associated with, and used solely for the creation, compilation, debugging or execution of programs written in the C++ or C languages. *** 2.4 License for Preview Technology. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License and for the duration of the Preview Period, Borland grants to you, if you are an individual, or, if you are an entity, one (1) designated person in your organization ("Named User") a personal, nonexclusive, nontransferable and limited license to use the Preview Technology solely for your own internal purposes. The Preview Technology is preview quality only and is not intended to be commercial production quality and as a result may contain limited functionality or errors. All rights not specifically granted to you herein are retained by Borland. WORKS THAT YOU CREATE USING THE PREVIEW TECHNOLOGY MAY REQUIRE THE PREVIEW TECHNOLOGY IN ORDER TO RUN. UPON EXPIRATION OF THE PREVIEW PERIOD, THOSE APPLICATIONS MAY NO LONGER RUN. You should therefore take precautions to avoid any loss of data that might result. The Preview Period begins on your acceptance of this Agreement and shall terminate immediately upon Borland's release of an update to complete the functionality of the Preview Technology, whereupon you will have a Named User license as set forth in Section 2.3. *** Rodrigo Gómez wrote: Quote: Just to clarify: could it be possible to create and release to the public compiled programs using this preview? I know that one month is not that much, but I'm sure someones will ask it, and I don't see that clearly specified anywhere. This of course in the case that the preview is good to do this, but that's a technical matter. The question here is more "legal" or about the "license". -- Anders Ohlsson - http://blogs.borland.com/ao/ http://homepages.borland.com/aohlsson/blog_beta/#disclaimer Back to top Pete Fraser Guest Posted: Fri Nov 18, 2005 9:21 am    Post subject: Re: What exactly is a "TECHNOLOGY PREVIEW"?
