Borland C++ 3.1
-
I have started programming in 2D graphics and would like to know if anyone could help me. I want to create a clock using circle() and line() functions. Then have the clock ticking in seconds. If anyone would have an answer it would help me a great deal. I want to use Borland C++3.1 to create this clock. Please help I want to try and get it finished by next Friday??:confused: Sarah Fox

You'd probably do better in the Visual C++ forum, although you're not using VC++, I don't think this forum gets much traffic. Why are you using BC ? Christian After all, there's nothing wrong with an elite as long as I'm allowed to be part of it!! - Mike Burston Oct 23, 2001

Flubby: It depends on what you're doing.
If you're ok with depending on MFC, then VC is, of course, better. But for straight API programming I find BC's code better, much better. (except for multithreaded apps where there is a problem with the memory allocation libraries and you've gotta work extra)Too bad Borland is no longer providing support for BC and I'm forced to consider moving to VC: VC's resource editor sucks big time and precompiled header handling is also very bad.
And what's with this stupid message "file XXX.cpp has changed.. do you want to recompile?"
you feel like answering "Nooooo.. just ignore the 50,000 extra lines I've just typed.. OF COURSE I want you, a compiler, to compile!.. haven't I payed for that???"
What VC does kick BC's ass is in project-file handling: In BC, sending a project to someone else is shitty because the project files keep references to your computer's paths.. while in VC, the paths are relative.
MAN! I wish Borland would keep enhancing BC.. but, too bad: I'll probably have to cope with VC's creepy auto-generated code. Sonork ID: 0.2 -

The file has changed, do you want to reload? 2. The project settings have changed, do you want to rebuild. It appears that you are actually editing the files outside of VC++ while keeping it open, which is where you trouble would come from. Use built-in editor and you should be fine. Or perhaps you open the same project twice in different VC++ instances...
