I value possibility to have a perl built with Borland C++ builder, and I even used it many times in some 5.005_xx versions. Now I do not interested in it anymore, for a long time already, and I do know that this is a compiler in problem, and borland itself just don't have enough support of their own compiler now, (and borland do not even exist) but it still gives a -1 from me :) although very minor one :) Regards, Vadim.Thread Previous | Thread Next
