Borland C++

you need to create the 2 files below and add them in your bin directory.
1) bcc32.cfg

-I"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\include"
-L"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\lib"

2) ilink32.cfg

-L"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\lib"

that should resolve the linker error. just make the files in notepad and make sure you put "" marks around the filenames so notepad does not append .txt on the end.

So what you are saying, is you want me to make the file bcc32.cfg, and put

-I"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\include"
-L"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\lib"

within it, save it as bcc32.cfg, then make another program called ilink32.cfg with

-L"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\lib"

in it?

EDIT: It says these files already exist, overwrite them?

EDIT: It says these files already exist, overwrite them?

yeah or open the files with notepad and add that. of course make sure that the include and the lib directories are actually in \cbuilder5.

This is what is located in the bcc32.cfg file

-I"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\Include";"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\Include\vcl"
-L"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\Lib";"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\Lib\obj";"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\Lib\release"

and this is what is in the ilink32.cfg file

-L"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\Lib";"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\Lib\obj";"C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder5\Lib\release"

isnt that what you told me to put? I didnt change anything , I just was curious and opened them up. Do I still need to add the stuff you told me to add? And yes the lib and include directories are in the borland/cbuilder directory.

Aint got a clue what could be wrong. try http://support.borland.com/category.jspa?categoryID=37 or google for the error message you are getting. im guessing it is the ilinker32.exe thingie i got when i first installed it.

maybe search there newsgroups for help as well http://support.borland.com/entry.jspa?externalID=292

I didnt buy the program though. :] Shouldnt it work just when you install it?

Does anyone have a program they would recommend for creating and running C++ programs? Just simple things like Hello World, and crap like that, where you can press a button, and out will jump a dos prompt with your program running in it.
