I'm curious -- which version of TC++ are you using? There's a
"maintenance release" version 1.01 available (from Borland customer
service) that fixes a lot of problems. I can't remember for sure, but
your problems #2 and #3 sound familiar and may have been fixed.
As for problem #1 (EMS usage), I read on Compu$erve that TC++ uses all
of the EMS available when it starts and doesn't release any of it when
you shell out or execute your program from within the IDE. If this is
causing your EMS problems, you can work around it with the undocumented
command line switch:
/e###
where ### is the size of EMS (in Kbytes, I think) to allow TC++ to
allocate for itself. The remaining EMS is left free for your
application. (I have had no problems with either version of TC++
clobbering already allocated EMS.)
Of course, TC++ 1.01 still has bugs. But it's a great improvement over
1.00, which I wouldn't use.
I suppose that good advice when buying software is never to buy version
1.0 of anything :-(
