BORLAND C++ 5.5 COMPILER

[jjzabala]

I'm new to C++ and have downloaded BORLAND's compiler. Could someone give me step by step instructions on how to compile using it. I already tried but i fing it difficult coz i'm not familiar with it. Thanks!

First make sure your Borland bin and lib directories on on your path. Check your OS to see how to do it. On Win NT/2000 you can right click "My Computer", select properties, click on the Advanced tab, and then select "Enviroment variables." I think it tells you this in the compiler's read me file.

After that, try this. Open a text editor and type the following:

#include <iostream.h>

int main()
{
        cout << &quot;Hi, World&quot; << endl;
        return 0;
}

Save this file as Hi.cpp.

Go to the command prompt, CD to the direcotory where you saved Hi.cpp and type BCC32 Hi.

You should have had Hi.exe created. Type Hi and there you have it. James P. Cottingham

Major mistake in the above code.

The string "Hi, World" should read "Hello, World".

Even the experts can make make mistakes. ;-)
