How of you guys have (or had) Borland C++ ? How many of you found frustrated by the performance of the compiler against Microsoft and now (even better) gcc/egcs ? Or just frustrated of limited STL support in BC 4.5... (I know 5.0x are fully STL-compatible and even maybe standard C++ compatible, but that's not the point!) I *know* RHIDE and other free IDEs are out there. I don't want to use those. Some of you say, why? it's free! Well, I have paid for Borland stuff and I must admit I like it... if not *love* it :) but the compiler isn't satisfying me anymore when I know free compilers are out there and beating Borland's. I know I'm not the only guy on that planet who'd prefer to debug GCC/EGCS/DJGPP/whatever binaries in Borland IDE or plain Turbo Debugger. If one of you guys know how to do that, please let me know!!! Status of my research... 1. I need to configure Borland IDE to use GCC with C/CPP files. That is, set gcc as my C/CPP translator. Probably no prob there but haven't tried it yet. 2. Need to configure Borland IDE to parse output from GCC (like in Codewright) *OR* use a perl script to adapt GCC output to Borland format. I do not think that would be a problem but sincerly haven't tried it. Anyone did? 3. Have Borland to read debug .o files OR have GCC compile borland debug .obj OR have the debug .o converted to borland debug .obj Oh, BTW, I'd like to integrate NASM as well... :) Any help appreciated but please no "Use linux and dll, use RHIDE, etc etc etc". If I ever get it done and any of you are interested, just let me know. Thanks in advance for you help! Francois Jacques
