Well, 6 weeks and $130 later I finally got Turbo C++. They left out the utility called TCCVNT.EXE which is documented on page 135 of the TC++ User's Guide. In fact, they don't even list it as one of the files on their manifest! This utility is very important (to me, anyway) because it allows you to convert TCCONFIG.TC files to TURBOC.CFG and vice versa. The utility used to be called TCCONFIG.EXE (TC 2.0) but this one won't work with TC++. Does anyone have it?? My distribution came on 3.5" floppies. Thanks for replying. ----------------------------- Steve Hite ...gatech!uflorida!unf7!shite

There are two programs documented profusely in the Turbo-C++ documentation (and README files) which were not included in the distribution. They were TCCNVT, mentioned above, and PRJ2MAK which will take a Turbo-C++ project file and turn it into a makefile. When I contacted Borland tech support (both over the phone and via the net) they said that the programs were not completed in time to distribute with this version of the software. They said that there may be a maintenance release of TC++ in the not too distant future and the programs (or their functionality) should be included in that release. Additionally, Borland may decide to release PRJ2MAK on their CompuServe forum prior to the next release. --- Barry L.

Borland didn't include it because they didn't finish it in time for the release. In fact, it still isn't finished, and they don't know if/when it will be. PRJ2MAK also was not included for the same reason. -dg- -- "You can twist perceptions * Dave Goldblatt dave@interlan.com Reality won't budge..." * Diagnostic Engineering - Rush * Racal InterLan * Boxborough MA (508) 263-9929

Thanks for replying. ----------------------------- > Steve Hite > ...gatech!uflorida!unf7!shite OK, I've released a Turbo C++ Frequently Asked Questions message on the various comp.os.msdos.programmer, etc groups, in response to a flame about TC++ and Mouse (or something). It answers this question, as well as 25 or so others. It is a long file, specific to a single vendors implementation of C and C++. If you have questions, I'd recommend tracking down that message before it expires at your site. I'll be updating it monthly, if I think about it. It doesn't go into C++ funnies, because I don't know C++, so I don't know the answers to frequently asked questions. --- Don_A_Corbitt@cup.portal.com Not a spokesperson for CrystalGraphics, Inc.
