Borland C++ was a C and C++ IDE (integrated development environment) released by Borland for MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows. It was the successor to Turbo C++ and included a better debugger, the Turbo Debugger , which was written in protected mode DOS.
C++Builder is a rapid application development (RAD) environment for developing software in the C++ programming language. Originally developed by Borland, as of 2009 it is owned by Embarcadero Technologies, a subsidiary of Idera.
Additionally, Borland's approach towards software piracy and intellectual property (IP) included its "Borland no-nonsense license agreement"; allowing the developer/user to utilize its products "just like a book". The user was allowed to make multiple copies of a program, as long as it was the only copy in use at any point in time.
In the early 1980s, Borland enjoyed considerable success with their Turbo Pascal product and it became a popular choice when developing applications for the PC. Borland followed up that success by releasing Turbo Prolog (in 1986), and in 1987, Turbo Basic and Turbo C. Turbo C has similar properties to Turbo Pascal: an integrated development environment, a fast compiler (though not near the ...
Turbo C++ is a discontinued C++ compiler and integrated development environment originally from Borland.It was designed as a home and hobbyist counterpart for Borland C++.As the developer focused more on professional programming tools, later Turbo C++ products were made as scaled down versions of its professional compilers.
In 1995 Borland released Delphi, its first release of an Object Pascal IDE and language. Up until that point, Borland's Turbo Pascal for DOS and Windows was largely a procedural language, with minimal object-oriented features, and building UI frameworks with the language required using frameworks like Turbo Vision and Object Windows Library.
In the early 1990s, Borland dominated the C++ market. In 1991, Borland introduced Borland C++ 3.0 which included OWL 1.0. At that time, C++ was just beginning to replace C for development of commercial software, driven by the rising of the Windows platform and the rapid adoption of object-oriented design. During this period, OWL was a popular ...
Delphi is known for its fast compilation speed, native code, and developer productivity. [citation needed] Delphi was originally developed by Borland as a rapid application development tool for Windows as the successor of Turbo Pascal.
