If you have installed C++ Builder, WELL DONE! It's a wonderful
implementation, and well worth the money.
C++ Builder is of course a GUI-building environment, and you almost
certainly want to write console programs to start off with. So drop to the
command line, find your program code, e.g.
#include <iostream>
using std::cout;
using std::endl;
int main()
{
cout << "Hello, world!" << endl;
return 0;
}
and type this to compile it:
bcc32 foo.cpp
(Unless Borland have mended their conformance issues recently, don't use the
-A switch that turns on conformance because, if you do, bcc32 can't compile
its own headers!)
I've provided this rather raw information in the interests of getting you up
and running quickly, but the other respondents to your article are, alas,
correct; this newsgroup is for helping you learn the language, not how to
drive your implementation.
(Personally, I don't think it does any harm to just tell language-newbies or
implementation-newbies how to get "hello world" running, if someone here
happens to know. Comments, anyone?)
