Do you know Borland command-line compiler bcc32?
-
I understand that everything is "visual" these days and the level of abstraction in software development is enormous, making it unnecessary for a developer to know about existence of actual ones and zeroes that that make up the CPU instructions ;P. I know that this forum is dedicated to the latest tools primarily from Microsoft and this is not the right place to ask the question I have. Yet I am desperately looking for the "dinosaurs" who may know what assembler is, who learned to program 30-40 years ago, and in the process of doing that came across the basic programming tools, such as command-line compilers and linkers. I've been using bcc32 and ilink32 to build API applications for 15 years, primarily for scientific computing and hardware control. Recently I came up with an unusual project, which requires some re-configuring of the compiler settings. Unfortunately, my post at Embarcadero (former Inprise -> former Borland) web site remains unanswered. That is why I am here "crying into the wind" for some help. Please reply to this message if you think you could help. I do not bother to describe the question itself in this post (to save the space on the server ;))
