Borland Bugs?

Dear Editor,

I have been having a few problems with Borland C++™ version 5 and wondered if other users had similar problems.

The problems are:

  • Crashing when new lines are edited into source code

  • Ignoring break points set on lines.

  • Generating the wrong error message help screen when help is requested for a compiler error.

I cannot find any help on the Borland site and Borland, when phoned up, deny that it is a problem with their compiler - they tried to pass the buck to Windows NT™. We have checked the source code for any odd characters but there are only standard ASCII characters in the source.

Has anyone else had these problems and is Borland C++™ reputed to be buggy?

Thanks

David Jepps

Which reminds me, has everyone noticed that Borland are now Borland again having abandoned the plainly silly PR change of name to Inprise?
