use STLs, and I try to avoid programming MFC directly if I can. How easily would they
import into BDS2006? Does TClientSocket work *exactly* as it did with BCB5? Has TRichEdit
been improved? I run at 1024 X 768 resolution - is this too cramped? TIA,

outcries, and various other channels, including Paul Gustavvson's web pages, Borland may
well have ditched BCB as a white elephant. Thank goodness it is still going, as I
sincerely have no desire to move to MS Visual Studio in order to have to write my own
message pumps - Jeez! I really like BCB's "double-click on an event in the Object
Inspector, and you're ready to type your code in". I doubt MS even have an Object Inspector!

kept on *using* BCB and complained about the quality and the lack of a
followup. They were the reason. Borland can hardly sell products to
people who have already jumped to another product. The people who stayed
were their market, not the ones who were gone.

probably unchanged.
with a second monitor to hold some of the stuff. The ide definitely
takes more real estate than the BCB5/6 IDEs did. There is still
grumbling about changes to the tool palette and it is not really
possible to keep it as compact as in BCB5/6. On the other hand it is
more convenient to use with more components visible.
