Yay! Downloading it now, thanks!

Turbo C++ is a download of 384 MB and the prerequisite is 228 MB. It's too much in my modest opinion.
Hello,
Is it compatible with the c++ microsoft ?.

I am waiting for the license file, which they have supposed to have sent to my email account! :( :(

Isn't C++ supposed to be portable?! :P
Funny,yes
Perhaps c++ is portable and have the same syntaxe but ...... c++ borland had a prerequired install that need the framework 1.1 instead of 2.0 and some other things that can made troubles with the microsoft one.The c++ microsoft can be break easily or put on trouble with very little things.

I already had all the prerequisites so I didn't need to download and install any of them.
ToutEnMasm,
The .NET Framework 1.1 will co-exist with 2.0, no problem. I have both MS VC++ Express and Turbo C++ Explorer installed, I'm not having any problems with either of them.
Waiting for over 3+ days...no license file yet!!! :( :( ::) ::)
Anyone with similar (mis)fortune???
Shantanu,
Maybe the e.mail you are waiting for is marked as spam, did you check it?
shantanu,
I'm not sure how long it took for me. I put in the request at night and when I got back around to it the next afternoon, it was there.
It seems something has gone wrong with your request.
I checked the spam...no spam!!! :( :(
It seems to be a hotmail specific thing!!! The email was delivered properly on yahoo. :bg
Thanks for your responses!

Greg,
What are your first impressions on this new version of Turbo C++ ? Does it worth to download all those packages?
Vortex,
I have been trying it out and it's a very good C / C++ compiler and the IDE is nice too. I have been trying to get a TASM-only project to work in the IDE, but so far I haven't been able to. I imagine it can be done, but they sure don't make it easy. TASM could be a great assembler if they would fix some problems, make some improvements and get it up to date. Unfortunately Borland (and Microsoft) seem to be mostly focused on OOP and .NET.
Positives:
It's definitely not as big and bloated as Visual C++ 2005.
It doesn't produce .NET executables, so it doesn't require all the stuff needed for .NET.
Negatives:
It doesn't support the C99 standard (Pelle's C does).
In my opinion TASM isn't quite as good as MASM or POASM.
Try installing it without the prerequisites, and see what it really requires. I can't see why Turbo C++ would need the .NET Framework, ... unless maybe the IDE requires it.
Try it out and see what you think.
Hi Greg,
Many thanks for the infos. I will try to download the package.
Hi Greg,
is there a file included which lists the differences between TASM 5.0 and TASM 5.3? If yes, could you please post it here! TASM is all I'm interested in (potentially), but downloading some hundred MB bloatware just to find out there hasn't changed anything in TASM, that's possibly not a good idea...
Regards
Japheth
Japheth,
I can't find a document from Turbo C++ 2006 that describes the differences between TASM 5.0 and TASM 5.3.
I did find the following in "Art of Assembly" 12.3 Programming in Delphi/Kylix and HLA
Quote from: Art of AssemblyFortunately, as of HLA v1.26, HLA provides an option to produce TASM output that is compatible with TASM v5.3 and later. Unfortunately, Borland doesn't really sell TASM anymore; the only way to get a copy of TASM v5.3 is to obtain a copy of Borlands C++ Builder Professional system which includes TASM32 v5.3. If you don't own Borland C++ and really have no interest in using C++ Builder, Borland has produced an evaluation disk for C++ Builder that includes TASM 5.3. Note that earlier versions of TASM32 (e.g., v5.0) do not support MMX and various Pentium-only instructions, you really need TASM v5.3 if you want ot use the MASM output.
According to this 5.3 added support for MMX and some other newer insructions, I would guess CMOV etc.
Thanks a lot!
Yay! Downloading it now, thanks!
Cheers,
Shantanu

Hello,
It's not very difficult to have only the binaries of TASM.
Don't install the prereqs.zip.Launch the intaller , he will failed but put unpacked files in the temp directory.
Edit (with orca) the main msi file (8 Mo).In the CustomAction table,delet the "Detect Prereq" fonction.
Launch the modify msi file,and you have now a complete bin directory where you can copy the needed executables for tasm.
below is a list of files to copy to a TASM directory.
I have tried to compiled a source (with an rc file) and it work.

Hello,
I can do that only if Hutch give it's autorisation.

Quotei dont see why is not legal because its free to download
A product which is free to download doesn't mean that it can be freely distributed by others.
trodon,
Well, I won't upload those files due to legality issues.
The downloaded .exe file can be opened with WinRAR (hint).
If you have been waiting for an email from Borland with registration info. Dont! Go to youre account on BDN, there you will finde the keys under Registred Software or somthing like that.
Quotei dont see why is not legal because its free to download
This is what the license says:
QuoteBorland is only willing to grant you this License if you obtained the Product from Borland or a Borland authorized reseller. If you obtained the Product from any other source you may not install or use the Product.
Pretty much says it all, I think.

thankssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
The turbo assembler (tasm32.exe, version 5.3 dated to 2000) is included in the downloads. You can find it in the bin folder. I copied it to d:\tasm\bin so that I will not accidently delete it.

Thanks for the link.
